my hand forged caleb/james meyer inspired setting!!

[jschwick1]

This is my new beautiful ring from Heart of Waters on etsy! It was inspired by a Caleb Meyer design, I absolutely loved the hand forged designs made by the Meyers but their settings were out of my price range. I already had 3 old mine cut diamonds and just needed to find a reasonably priced setting for them. I knew I wanted a three stone bezel ring and I actually saw some recommendations for heart of waters here, on priceline! I looked them up on etsy and was so pleasantly surprised that they could make me a beautiful, hand forged setting, with the design elements I wanted, all for under $1000!! The owner of the shop, Sally, has been very nice to work with and they are a wonderful shop, I even sent them my antique stones to set in the ring! They just finished a few days ago and I am so excited to get the ring and see it in person! It looks beautiful and I am very happy with how it turned out! I'll update with hand pics once the ring arrives! I hope everyone who sees this enjoys the seek peak of my new wedding ring! I'm already in love with it!

That is SO beautiful!!! That vendor is outside of the US, right? Was there a way to insure your diamonds when sent to her?

 

[jschwick1]

Thank you! They are in thailand, you can insure your package but I did registered mail and they arrived safe and sound! It is a little nerve racking sending priceless stones out of the country but their quality of work and overall experience made it worth it!

Stunning!

Very pretty, it looks different enough from a Meyer piece to be unique but still have the same style.

Very nice! Sally does do gorgeous work, doesn't she? Enjoy your new ring!

I love the way it turned out! It's definitely similar to JM but different at the same time

 

[jschwick1]

Thank you for all the kind words! I agree, it has the Meyer style yet a little different! They did a great job, I'm sure it will look even better in person! I can't wait to get it on my finger!

Any good wedding band suggestions?? Im thinking just a simple thin band. I don't want anything to compete with the ring...I did find a vintage orange blossom ring with a groove in the middle, 2mm. I should prob wait to get it on my hand to make any band decisions though lol!

I love this ring! It also reminds me of Megan Thorne's designs, which I also love.

What about a beaded band that would pick up the beaded ends on the scroll work? Something like these two here. The first is a ring on Amazon in white gold (but comes in any color). The second is from Brilliant Earth, in yellow. Both are 1.7mm.

 

[jschwick1]

Pretty! I've considered a beaded design like that as well! I haven't tried looking on amazon though, thanks for the tip!

 

[jschwick1]

I can also see the Megan Thorne elements! Her work is beautiful as well, the same kind of style I lOVE!

 

[azstonie]

Oh, it looks so pretty and I can't wait to see lots of hand shots!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Thanks for the shipping info!

I love the beaded bands! Can't wait to see hand shots and with a band!

 

[missy]

Beautiful ring! Looking forward to hand shots with the beaded band.
