Often jewelers work together in networks, so if one can’t help you they can usually recommend one that can. Be aware that when you have a ring specially designed, you are going to pay much more for it than if you were to buy a ring that you found in the display case. But this cost is worth it. Imagine how special this moment and wedding will feel because of the extra effort you have gone to when selecting the perfect engagement ring.
One Off Design
Once you find your jeweler, you then have to decide which antique engagement ring settings you like. One great idea is to base your antique engagement ring design off of your grandmother’s or great grandmother’s. Or, looking on the internet for vintage wedding ring designs or searching through old family photos can be a good place to start for ideas. Incorporating several different designs into one design can be a great way to make your ring totally unique. Make sure, though, that if you have a jeweler specially make your ring and you find the antique engagement ring design you’re looking for, ask the jeweler to destroy the mold so that you’ll know your wife will be the only one carrying that ring on her finger.
