Hi Everyone,
I was here a little over a year ago seeking advice in designing my fiance's ruby engagement ring. With your support and help I was able to pick a design and get a stone that she and I are both very happy with
.

I'm now looking to design my wedding band, something that matches my fiance's ring. I want a ruby. Nothing large or grand, but something of high quality. I don't know where I can find smaller rubies but good colour and clarity? Even under .5 ct. I'd really like something unique. I was thinking of something like these:



Relatively simple on the top, either stones on the side, or single / multiple small stones on the surface. I really like the hammered look.
I don't want to spend too much money on the labour, I'd rather spend on good quality stones and gold, so I was leaning a little more towards the simpler styles. Any advice or insight is much appreciated!
Thanks,
AJ
