looking for tapered baguette sidestones

[megeve]

Any ideas where I can buy online tapered baguette sidestones for a ring? Or recommend any PS vendors who do stock them?

Thank you.

Whoever you are buying your ring from can easily get them for you...

Thanks Neatfreak. I am looking for loose stones, as I want to get them done in Europe.

Diamond source of virginia can source shaped side stones you specify dimension.

I have no experience with these folks and have no idea if they are awesome or reputable. The customer service rep responded to my initial inquiry quickly.

Anemone, thank you. I will check the site.

So you want to buy sidestones and have them sent to Europe? I''m not sure if that''ll be cost effective, but you might want to try contacting Wink Jones @ Winfield''s then. He''s great at sourcing sidestones.

I heard of a company in New York City called the MrBaguette, you may want to check them out...

I would have the vendor who is making the ring source them out for you. Most reputable jewelers should be able to do this without a problem.

Any jeweller in Europe worth their salt can source them for you very easily.

Diamond Source of Virginia can provide whatever shape, quality and size of side stones you want. However, the concern raised in previous comments about your setter in Europe is valid. We find that most setters want to sell you the diamonds too because that is where they often make most of their profit. In fact we often find that a custom setter or designer will find something wrong with whatever stone you provide (don’t fit, not shaped right, etc.) in an effort to have you purchase from them. Since you want your ring made by a “happy” designer, it is probably smart to get the side stones from them.

We have numerous international clients and prices in the US are usually lower for diamonds but your baguettes should not be that much more when purchased there.
