Best place for newbie to buy cabochons please?

Best bet is always to try to get to a rock n gem show, where you can actually see before you buy. You can get some real bargains as well. Especially if you're happy to be a bit creative about settings and don't mind slightly imperfect stones.

Next one is at Kempton Park racecourse this weekend

Hello, I am a new member too, but have made my own cabs for my pieces. I make agate and jasper cabs mainly and can send you some pictures if you want.

I've used PJ Beads before and can recommend them. They're very quick off the mark with postage too. The only thing I'd say about them is make sure you fill your basket as the postage is £3 - even for a tiny envelope of 6 cabs.

I've never bought from them because I only do pearls but how about http://www.gemcollector.com/. I've met Steve Bennett and he certainly knows his gemstones.

Wow - thanks for that - what an informative site - the learning library is awesome

The word that occurred to me wasn't "informative" - it was "lethal". Some gorgeous stones there - and a number I've never heard of before.
