    Sources for organza half circle veils

    I am looking to buy about a dozen half circle organza veils for my students but I am having trouble locating them. I used to get them from a local vendor (Hopes Travel Treasures) but she moved out of the country and is no longer in business. She gave the rest of hers to another local vendor but that person is selling them for $40 each which is way too much IMO. Dahlal has a few in stock for $20 but I emailed them this morning and they only have 6 left and won't be getting more until March. Can anyone recommend another vendor who has these for around $20? Thanks!

    I can but she is in the UK. Farida all things Belly Dance
    A very good shop to deal with, always quick and efficient and the price is right for you but of course you have to add postage, which might not be too bad as these veils are hardly heavy but then your customs might demand a slice.

    Dahlal. The site states there are only two colors now but call them and ask:

    AP10-01V
    Half Circle Organza Veil II
    Special Web Price: $19.95
    A $25.00 value!

    This organza veil provides the perfect accessory for any eye-catching performance. Shimmering organza is lightweight yet lush in color and high in visual impact. Perfect for a double veil performance! At such a great price, you can be creative in your color combinations and accessorize all of your favorite looks easily and affordably.

    This is a gold one and a red one in action:

    Mintaka, I'm no fabric expert but I believe the veils from
    Ganesha Bazaar.com are organza. We use them for Tribal Veil; the ones we get are rounded rectangles, not strictly half-circles.

    Thanks everyone!

    I ended up bulk ordering veils from Farida in the UK. She didn't have many left when I called but the owner was on a buying trip in Egypt and they contacted her and brought more veils back for me. They were really helpful.
