Setting inspiration needed - solitaire in yellow gold

[meely]

Does anyone have any yellow gold solitaire inspiration?
No extra diamonds, low to the finger, Victorian/antique style. I love Van Craeynest too.
Here is one I like. Has anyone got anything saved that it is a better version of that, I’m struggling to find much.

@Niel has Grace in an original yellow gold antique setting and it's simple perfection. Hopefully she'll come and share!

Mine is a lot more simple than the one you posted there’s nothing fancy to her in the slightest. If you’d like some photos let me know

Thanks the second one is lovely, I’ve found a few similar ones on victor barbone as well that I like.

Thanks I’ve had a rummage on your thread and found them already! I love the lines and will definitely be going in that decoration, I think I just want some decoration on the shoulders/shank as well.

Have you found your inspiration yet?

No I’m struggling DK has the stone. I know I want plain prongy look very like the one you like and Niel’s ring but I want to do a raised design or engraving. Haven’t got there yet.

 

[maryjane04]

I am getting mine soon and it's fully engraved, everywhere possible hahaha I love engraving!
Let me insta stalk DK for inspirations for you, he has done some nice work recently.

 

[maryjane04]

Is your stone a round one? Mine isn't so I couldn't have these settings

 

[meely]

@maryjane04 Thanks so much I’ve just had a look. They are all lovely but I want something Victorian looking I think, a little bit whimsical. The shape is sorted pretty much (similar to my inspiration ring) and I just want ideas for the detail.

This is what I sent yesterday. I like the flowers on the two DK rings. Could I do something with flowers on the shoulders. Then I like the decoration on the vintage yellow gold ring.

 

[meely]

This is another ring that I love. I just want that really fine detail I think but I can’t quite get there. These are both gypsy style I don’t want that’s it’s the decoration I like.

Ooooh any photos of yours? Or a sneak preview perhaps

 

[maryjane04]

Oh here it is! Sneak peek since it's still not finished yet.

 

[maryjane04]

Oh yes I totally get what you're saying lol I'm similar in that sense. Initially I was going with a simple solitaire like this:




But I absolutely love engraving lol.

 

[meely]

Oh wow! Absolutely beautiful! When do you get it?

 

[maryjane04]

I have no idea haha whenever it gets finished? It's not far off. Then the long trip from USA to Australia lol.

 

[meely]

I am actually getting a cocktail ring made at the moment, Art Deco inspired and I want to get similar style engraving to yours. For this ring though I want something more flowing and that’s where I’m struggling as there are less examples about.

Is really is lovely. Did you say David was making it for you? I’ve always had stuff really quickly from him (UK).
What is your stone is it an old mine cut?

 

[caf]

It’s beautiful!

No, Alex Park is making my ring for me. And yes it's an old mine cut

And to the whole design element. I don't envy you at all lol. When I wrote my vision down and Alex made it the first time it came out so ugly he had to remake it lol.

Ha I bought my stone from Alex too. I am trying to work out how similar they are from looking at your video. Mine is antique cushion though. Here is the pic DK sent me yesterday.

I know! I saw on your other post lol mine in the one Alex posted together with yours once? I'm pretty that's the one. Your original setting was the oxidised white gold?

Lol it looks so naked without a setting hahaha.

 

[meely]

@maryjane04 Is that a double bezel on your ring? It is very yummy I love bezels

Maybe I didn’t see it? He did have it in a blackened or grey gold setting I think, think he just reused it for an emerald cut he just had on! I saw my stone ages ago. I posted about it last year and another one at JbG. I was scrolling through looking for something else last week and it stopped on it. I couldn’t believe it was still available and totally couldn’t believe it when my husband said yes. Totally felt like fate.

 

[maryjane04]

I think so lol initially it was a faux bezel with prongs. I love both and couldn't decide. As my stone is a bit wonky I thought this was the best option not to mention make it a fraction bigger lol.

Tell me about fate. Alex's stuff sell like hot cakes. So I was surprised when mine was still available too. Lol my hubby said yes too! This is our upgrade ring.

That’s so weird, definitely my stone you recognised that very well from a blurry photo! I love yours it looks gorgeous!
I love both those options either will look amazing (which ever it might be!)
