Have purchased antique-style moval, 12.5mm x 6mm or thereabouts. Wanting to set it east-west in a very very simple and clean bezel ring, probably yellow gold. Would appreciate jeweller suggestions with the following in mind:
1. Really good at very clean bezels There won't be any milgrain or any other details to hide behind, so need someone meticulous. I think CAD/cast is fine for this project, not opposed to fully handmade but not requiring finely detailed prong-work or filigree etc. Just someone good at a very clean finish.
2. Will work in a more minimalist/modern style - so many wonderful jewellers great with antique-style work (which I love), but not the brief here.
3. Able to give the option of different hues/alloys of yellow/rose gold. I don't think I want YELLOW yellow gold but I also don't want PINK rose gold - looking for the kind of burnished YG of yesteryear (but modern lines).
