Cartier 1895 Pave replica?

[larryjenkins]

Hi,

I've done numerous searches and have yet to find a decent Cartier 1895 Pave inspired e-ring. My gf loves that ring and I really like the lines/form of the ring.

So I ask, has anyone been looking and found something similar?

Thanks!

You mean this one right?

I would either go for the real thing or an inspired look. Replica's never work in my opinion. And a good jeweller would not steal a design...

Steven Kirsch makes fantastic rings with this look. They might be even more beautiful then the 1895:

Or the Anya by Victor Canera!

Both Victor and Steven make handforged rings and they can make a design for you based on your ideas, with any center stone you like.

Engagement Rings Direct does a nice replica

If you do a search on here "ERD" you will find a large number of people who have used them and been very please.

Definitely one of those three with VC and SK coming in as my personal choices.

Thanks everyone for all your suggestions! I really like the looks of them all from their 'hero' shot, but not a fan of how it looks from the side, mainly the part where it holds onto the diamond. Something about the Cartier just looks really fluid with the flow of the lines.

This ring from dimendscaasi looks very similar to the Cartier 1895. Same fluid lines...

Another from dimendscaasi, but with diamonds on all three sides of the band. It has milgraining, but you could probably get them to make one without it...

OP, this isn't supposed to look like the 1895, but it is similar and one of the prettier settings I've seen. I think it's similar to a Tiffany ring, but not sure. I love the head and the fluid lines. In my opinion, I think it looks more special and a little more elegant than the 1895.

If you could get them to change the prongs to those like the 1895 (and remove the little diamonds), this one is nice.

Wow, we're getting much closer now. It looks great--this might be it. How is the reputation at this jeweler?

I have not personally worked with dimendscaasi, but I remember reading about some PS members experiences being good. They used to only set their stones, but have set outside stones in recent years. I will try to find some links for you. Glad you like it!

Also, I believe you have to mention you are a member of PS in order for them to set an outside stone...

Now I'm wondering if any online jeweler like WF, GBD will mount my diamond if I sent the setting to them.

Not all online vendors will do it, but it doesn't hurt to ask...

EDIT: The vendor will probably not set a diamond unless you buy either the diamond or the setting from them. I think I misread your comment.
