Antique Vintage Jewelry

What people are saying about this...

   You need a ring with a curve or dip in it – sometimes called a wishbone band – or even one which is chevron – a vee-shape.
   This site has lovely bands, antique-style – it’ll just depend what would fit with your actual ring – there are plain, with designs, with diamonds, etc.

   Do a lot of looking around on the site, there are different styles under filigree, art deco, etc.

   The best and easiest thing is to just take the ring in to a good jeweler and have them wax carve a band that fits exactly.

   blufoxxcreations on ebay has vintage style white gold bands that would fit that curved ring.

   Bring the ring to a good jeweler. He will sketch you out something. Probably curved to match the bottom of the engagement ring with a small stone in the middle and a little one (like a chip) on each side. My grandma’s ring is late ’40′s and I am using it. It was a lot less flashy than that one but the band was what I described.

   You are going to have to deal with a jeweler where you can try on bands right next to your ring.
   If you want to get ideas, look online for "Ring Guard" or "Ring Wrap".

   I also have a uniquely shaped engagement ring. Due to the above budget cost involved in custom-making a ring that would look good next to it (the quote was $1,800), my fiance & I agreed that I would move my engagement ring to my right hand and I could then buy an in-stock ring somewhere.

   My e-ring has aqauamarine as the center stone so I found a ring that had some blue stones in it for my wedding band and the price was better than I could have hoped: http://www.qvc.com/qic/qvcapp.aspx/view.2/app.detail/params.item.J33404.desc.Tacori-Epiphany-Diamonique-Vintage-Inspired-Band-Ring

   You would want to take it to a jeweler and have a band designed that would complement your grandmother’s ring with the same style and feel.

   I had a similar problem. My ring is an Art Deco style heirloom. It has three diamonds on a carved band, and so is scalloped on both the top and bottom. I thought about having a band made that would accommodate the three scallops. But then I decided to wear the ring as both an engagement ring and a wedding ring. This ring is the one with the meaning for me, not a new band. But, if you don;t want to go my route, I agree with others to see a good jeweler to have a band made to complement the ring.
