I saw glue on bails. Does anyone use them and if so, what is your source? Thank you!

However Fire Mountain Gems has lots of that sort of thing. Google “glue on bail”and a lot of online sources will show up. Good luck!

The ones from TB were higher quality, Sterling, Copper or Gold Filled. The FM ones were base metal/plated.

Here are a few: The 4th and 5th photos are just mock-ups, but the others were actually glued in place.
