Suppliers of Rosettes
French companies I found on the web that have Rosettes for
sale:
as of 01/2012
Some sell Retail from their website
http://www.stockuniformes.com-do a
search on
Rosettes
http://www.arthus-bertrand.com/-do a
search on
Rosettes
Ebay has been a good source for me. The problem is when
looking for
certain ones, Ebay does not allow some to be sold, Purple
Heart, DSC, Silver
Star, etc.
I have been asked about certain ones, such as, the DFC, LoM,
MSM,
Army Ach., the recent past and Current Campaigns,
which are not offered anywhere to be had. My thinking is that
for
some awards, a limited supply was made due to the number of
those awarded
these in the past [LoM, DFC,MSM, etc.], unlike today where
some awards
seems to be more widely available in some cases.
An example is Ribbons, where every Ribbom from the Civil War
up
is still out there to be had,
though there is no longer anyone alive who was awarded it nor
the
number of family members keeping that memory alive.
The more common Rosettes where made for a mass market [ex:
ribbons],
either as one awarded it or as a collector wanting one
and thus more were left when the style of wearing Rosettes
changed.
See above -The obvious
problem
is the cost- and below about cost today why
there is a limited
amount still around.
Because of the Enamel Lapel pins being standard issue, there
is
not enough demand for a company to make them and get the
profit they would
need from them.
Getting Rosettes made
I found a French maker that would make them up for $7-8 each in
quantity's
of 35 [ I think it was ] depending on
the Dollar/Euro
exchange

This part is in French and I used MS internet explorer to view
it.
The site has an English tab also.

01/2014-There
is an American
company, Dexter, but they wanted 100 done at a time, for
around the same
price.
http://www.dexterrosettes.com/
Since this was first
posted,
I have been in contact with Dexter and they have been alot
more user friendly
I had a link for them on this web site once and emailed if it
would
OK to have the link, the response was not very friendly, being
huffy puffy
about the price I had shown, which I got off the net from
other
sources, so I took it down.
It would have been very easy to change the wording to handle
this,
but the responding person wasn't wise enough to get
this part of public relations.
I wish I would have kept it, but did not, as this is an on
going
project among several that I work on, so I deleted it and
moved on to the
next item, that was a blimp in time and only later did I think
that it
could be an issue, and posting it would let all see what I
saw.
