    All, I have a half a dozen faceted star shaped blue sapphires. They
    are small maybe five to seven or eight points. 

    They are faceted on both sides and are five pointed stars. I am
    thinking about setting them in a band and thought about just burring
    out the shape and putting a bead over each tip. Has anyone ever set
    this type of shape? I need setting tips and can anyone give me a
    source for more of them I bought them from a local dealer for my wife
    years ago and have never seen them again. 

    They are true "star sapphires."
