where do you guys buy your stuff for the pearl like, thin rosettes seen commonly on steel strings?


i am looking through stew mac and lmi but must be missing what it is called or something. I did an improvised Big smile rossette out of multiple pieces of wood on the first top, but want a thin rosette on the second top i joined yesterday.

SO I was just over complicating it. I thought there was a specific name for pearl bindings used as a rosette.

Feel free to call it a pearl rosette or just curved pearls pieces. (by the way, I cast my vote for andy depaul. Not sure what his web site is called but it should be easy to find
