Vendor that sells empty mountings?

[vitona526]

I’m looking for a ring mounting for a 1 carat stone I already have. Does anyone sell antique/vintage mountings without stones?

Lots on ebay.

If you don't mind antique style rather than genuine antiques, Ivy and Rose is also popular.

@Dreamer_D Thank you!!! Very helpful. I looked on eBay but my searches weren’t pulling much up.

Just browsing for now. I have 1 carat old cut. I was thinking maybe belcher setting. I could also do a toi et moi with my original 1 carat engagement diamond. Or something more ornate as a cocktail type right hand ring.

I don't see many belchers, mainly 80's stuff. Great idea, tho.

When I was doing my pendant I searched for existing pieces holding inexpensive stones: amethyst, peridot, garnet.

I’m making note of this… if I ever reset Flora, she’s going in an antique setting. This is such a great idea.
