    Hi Julie, www.Earthstone.com has lots of briolettes at reasonable
    prices, especially in agates and other opaque stones.  Their
    transparent, semi-precious brios are a bit on the pricey side for
    really good quality.  But they do have a nice selection, especially
    of tiny faceted teardrops.  I've never purchased their brios, but
    have been extremely happy with the quality of the other beads I have
    received from them.  If you are willing to pay for the quality,
    www.briolettes.com (a list member, I believe) has some of the
    loveliest briolettes I have ever set eyes upon.  I haven't had the
    good fortune to purchase any from him yet, but I plan to. 

Good luck!
Carrie
