source for $500 - $1000 art deco-ish setting?

[velouriaL]

Hi! I'm helping some one find a $500 - $1000 (MAX!) art deco inspired setting. Other antique settings might be okay, too. He really likes Niel's SIL setting ([URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/sil-ring-sapphire-chapter.195472/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/sil-ring-sapphire-chapter.195472/[/URL]), but wants to spend a little more money for something a little more substantial. He likes many on Antique Engagement Rings, but they're a little out of his price range. We looked through a ton of Gabriel and Co and on IDJ, but we didn't see many that have the right look. This would be for a 6.7mm round. Any ideas?

Is this for the friend you had that old thread about??

Also I'll look around. I feel like I've seen similar settings.

ETA, while searching I had sent an email over to hearts of water to see if they could replicate a setting similar to this... they could but it was a bit out of our budget, but not yours. She might be worth a call, show her some pics, maybe the original DZ setting see what she can do for you.

Nope, different friend. That first friend got all caught up in grad school and fell off. I hope he resumes his search! And so does his GF! This one asked me to help and very quickly bought a stone, so I think he's a little bit more determined to make this happen. I'm excited to have a project and for him and his GF.

That setting is really beautiful, Niel! I'll tell him to contact HoW.

I think he did contact DZ about a heavier version, but I don't think he's heard back.

now this may or may not work, but this is listed on a site for 1050... and i think its in 18k. So id probably ask around at GoG and Pearlmans.. see if they would do it in 14k in budget.
