Friday is HERE, you know what that means! Time for our Friday Favorites! We decided to keep the alliteration going today and are featuring Five Rings with Fantastic Filigree! Filigree is the delicate, lace-like engraving we often see on vintage engagement rings. Filigree was an extremely popular addition during the Edwardian era when platinum replaced gold as the preferred metal. Platinum is much less temperamental than gold, and can be carefully and precisely hand-worked to create the feminine & lacy designs characteristic of the era. Check out some of our favorites below!
