Ring Filigree
Custom Jewelers in Texas?

My boyfriend and I have been looking at engagement rings. We're pretty specific about what we want: a diamond and sapphire ring with pretty extensive filigree work in the Art Deco style. And honestly most of the diamond and sapphire rings we've seen in stores are just flat ugly. So, we're beginning to think that most mass made rings just aren't for us, even the vintage inspired ones. He doesn't like the thought of estate jewelry. So, we've opted to create one. Our budget on both the engagement and wedding ring is about 14k. Can anyone recommend a jeweler in Texas who can do this type of work? I'm especially thinking about the filigree as it seems pretty complicated.

Thanks.
Thanks for the links, but I've seen them all before. I have spent hours upon hours online-- This is why I hope someone knows something that I've missed.
