Wedding bands

I was looking at bands on Etsy as well. There are people who offer a one year warranty on their products. I'd choose them. Also look at reviews as well. There are still honest people out there. Best wishes.

I have always been hesitant about Etsy as well. Everyone says well you can just get the jewelry appraised at a jeweler after you receive them, but what if they end up being fake?? It’s not like these people are local where you could take them to small claims court or anything. I am sure there are many legitimate Etsy jewelers out there, but I have always been too scared to chance it. Three jewelers online that I know do custom rings and are legit are www.custommade.com
www.hiholden.com and www.shopsaintmae.com

View Quoted Comment Right, exactly! It’s not an easy process to go through if it does turn out to be fake. Thank you for the other website suggestions!!

This is where I got my wedding and engagement ring. They are a jewelry store in NY. They do custom work, or premade rings. They were very helpful! http://www.custom-wedding-rings.com/

Edited to correct the link to the custom design page.

We got our wedding bands and my engagement ring from DownToTheWireDesigns on Etsy. https://www.etsy.com/shop/downtothewiredesigns?ref=simple-shop-header-name&listing_id=127232200


He's based in Washington state. From his about section: "My jewelry is created using ethically sourced materials. I purchase recycled and ethically mined metals from reputable US-based suppliers. I offer only conflict-free diamonds, responsibly sourced gemstones (like fair trade sapphires), and lab-grown stones. Finally, my studio is a low impact, environmentally friendly space."
I'm very happy with my rings and have had no problems and only excellent customer service, from resizing my engagement ring since it was ordered a half size too small, and giving me tips to restore the patina to like-new condition to match my new band after a long engagement due to covid.

You're welcome! Hope ring shopping is fun for you two. Congratulations!

View Quoted Comment Do you have pics? I'm looking at Etsy as well and would love to see real pictures of their jewelry, not staged.

I’ve never had a bad experience with Etsy! It’s all about doing your due diligence and looking through the reviews and the shop info. I’ll never go anywhere else for jewelry

My husband's ring is the inverse of mine, with plain silver on the outside and the pattern inside. His looks like a regular silver ring, and I think my only... not concern, not disappointment, but whatever, is that the plain silver does show scratches now from everyday use, but that's the metal and not the jeweler.

Just ordered from Staghead Designs @stagheaddesigns. First discovered them on Etsy but ultimately ordered directly from their website. I can't wait to get them! The design options offered by Staghead Designs is truly endless. We customized a little bit from a design they offered on their website. Swapped out rose gold for yellow gold. We ordered the Castor and the Eterna. www.stagheaddesigns.com.
