I was wondering if you all could share any reputable online sources. I'm familiar with ebay, rubylane and etsy, but things can really vary depending on the seller. Does anyone have any other places they like to browse for antique pieces?
Hello! i'm a newbie myself, but from what I've read, the folks here have suggested:
jewelsbyericagrace.com (i myself have met with Grace, and I can say they are wonderful)
langantiques.com (a little pricey but many have certs and the company is very reputable)
antiqueengagementrings.com (a great return policy)
for just stones, people tend to mention JbEG (jewelsbyericagrace.com) and oldworlddiamonds.com (OWD, and Adam must be the owner that everyone refers to), and Goodoldgold.com (GOG) which also sells newly cut diamonds in an antique style.
Good luck! I hope more knowledgable people chime in, too!
