My friend is finally searching for the perfect ring for his long-time girlfriend. Thing is, I think he''s got a few misconceptions about what is possible in engagement rings. His lovely girl is quite tiny, with large knuckles and almost skeletal long fingerbones. She''s mentioned in the past that she doesn''t think that a solitaire would work for her, given that any jewelry that she owns similar to that type tends to move too much and fall over on her finger.
She''s also crazy about antiques. Insanely crazy.. goes to fairs and has several lovely collections. Unfortunately, they both think that the only ''antique'' engagement rings out there are solitaires. He''s speaking with a local custom ringmaker, but I was curious what the experts here have seen in the ''old'' and ''not solitaire'' category.
I fear I may be speaking to deaf ears when I talk about cut.. he''s definitely one with pre-conceived notions about the process.. but I''m working on it!
Thanks.. and looking forward to seeing your ideas...
