Sourcing small side diamonds?

[MyCsPiTTa]

Hi, just a quick question. Does anyone know where to get the small diamonds for channel settings and the like? I''m after a dozen princess cut stones of approx 0.03c each (3 point). I''m not even sure what they are technically called to do a search on the net for them. Thanks.

Small stones of that size are called melee diamonds. Most people just let their jeweller/setter pick them out. Many places will not sell such small stones loose to the public because it is very cost ineffective.

ditto, it would be more cost effective to have your vendor who is making your ring find these for you. If you want high quality, then go to a place where you know that the sidestones will be really nice like WF''s ACA melee.
