Hello~ New to this site and loving it!
I would like to ask you PS-ers for your wise advice/comments/ideas regarding a few questions I have. Recently I received a band my mother once wore back in the 60's. I like the modern look and the contrast in texture. But what I really like is how it appears matte yet at an angle it shimmers. Also, I like the fact that it's not like the typical shiny bands, which are more susceptible to scratches. I've tried searching for a similar ring off the shelf for my fiance, but haven't been successful. Which has led me to the option of having it custom made. Based on the pictures, is this considered a filigree? And does anyone know of a jeweler (preferably in Los Angeles/Orange County, CA) that can duplicate it for me?
I'm all confused regarding which way to go with this... maybe someone can lend me some style direction?

My other question is... I already have a simple, 6-prong, solitaire, platinum setting (still searching for the diamond - Thank you Julien, Loreiei, and Dancing Fire for all your help in the other thread!!), which I don't think matches this band. Do you think this design will work on an ering? Or will it dull the look of the diamond? If it does work, is it possible to create this design on the band that I currently have or do I have to get a new one?
