antique/engraved wedding band

musincy Ideal Rock Total Posts: 609 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 6/28/2008	I need some help finding a wedding band. My e-ring is a plain cathedral setting with a princess cut diamond. I have been thinking about doing a half channel set wedding band, but I also really like some of the intricate, engraved rings I've seen on here. I think if I don't have diamonds in the band, I would like to be somewhat interesting and antique-looking (I'm not a huge fan of plain wedding bands). Do you have any pictures you could show me of bands that you think would look nice with my e-ring?

Thank you, Jetmal! You can't tell from the photo, but there are some slightly smaller diamonds that are patterned, almost encrusted into the design of the ring, along the edges which are rounded. I love it. I got it from Peter Suchy's in Stamford, CT. I'm about an hour away from him, so I was able to visit his shop. We also got my engagement ring there. He's an estate jeweler. This is the link to his ebay store, but he has a lot more inventory than what's in his ebay store. Peter Suchy I remember there was another store in NYC that had similar rings. I will see if I can find the link. It's not a store that I visited, just viewed on-line. BTW, your ring is gorgeous ! Off to find your SMTR thread!

It's a great deal $200, for 18k white gold, love the unique pattern. Marcy at the Ring Cafe is GREAT! http://www.theringcafe.com/product_info.php?cPath=41&products_id=1036&osCsid=fkibm0sn3igvnqh35fvm8hrog7 If it's not what you're looking for, or not your size, hopefully another PS'er will scoop this baby up! Good luck finding your antique/engraved band.

Loves Vintage Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,413 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 11/19/2007	Geckodani, This is the site I was remembering. They have lots o'bands listed, but not so much like my ring. This is the closest I could find: engraved diamond band The ring has a very similar shape to mine, the edges are rounded not straight, but I like my engraving better -- it's more delicate. And, if you see where the X's are on this ring, mine would have smaller diamonds on the top and bottom of those X's. I'll keep looking.

It's very pretty. The diamonds aren't F VS but they're not bad. I think they're probably H/I SI2s.

Do you have any other pics of it posted on here? Actually, I have a similar one as a wedding band. They are both OGI. The one in the avatar is a maybe someday anniversary ring that the DH and I both like (I love baguettes!); and my w-ring has channel-set round brilliants in a half eternity with engraving and milgrain. I do not have pictures of my rings here; I truly need to get a good digital camera and get busy! Maybe I'll get DH one for Christmas! I really like the OGI bands because they have that vintage look to them. They also have a couple of engraved/carved bands that resemble the type of old-fashioned band that you found. You've got a real treasure! Enjoy! _____________________________ "I cannot live without books." - Thomas Jefferson
