top pearl is .0625 ( 1/16 in )
the side and back pearl is .049 in
you can order this though Dave Nichols he also will have the poly strips for it.

another point you place the sound hole about 6 1/8 in as the wider rosette needs to be lower to get the pearl to match up on the extension and rosette.
