With all the reproduction antique ring settings I am having a difficult time searching for a source that has a lot of true antique (preferably art deco) ring mounting/settings. I have a 3.5 OEC diamond engagement ring that my fiance purchased and proposed with last year. The diamond was put in a temporary setting because it originally had a very ornate edwardian setting that just wasn't me. I prefer Art Deco styles without the intense decoratrion in/on the metal. A little filagree is fine but not intense filigree. A do not want a reproduction, sure there are plenty of beautiful ones out there-- but it's not what I want. It is difficult to locate anyone who has a good selection of true antique settings.
Sources I have already used are
ebay-- great store estate1920 with the largest selection I have found to date
Jewels by Erica Grace-- very small selection, not what I am looking for
Ruby lane-- difficult to search for settings/mountings but wasn't able to locate many
Etsy-- full of reporoductions
google-- full of reporoductions- difficult to search without weeding through all the junk.
I am located in NYC, if there is an in-person source anyone has or access to any websites, I would love to hear your recommendations.
Thank you so much!
