Hi Tom,

No prob's & glad to hear they'll be useful.
I don't profess to be any kind of expert with regards to pave, I've just accumulated info from those much more knowledgeable on the subject.

If looking for good examples of real jewellery then try searching for old stuff by Cartier & Tiffany as they were "hi-end" Makers.
Genuine old Art Nouveau stuff will have "animal subjects" & any with pave will be ALL done by hand, so that's your better reference.
Same will apply to Art Deco period as it was heavy with pave but being more geometric style, a lot of it's pieces are typically flat & so wont offer the same kind of reference.

Cartier's "Panther" range would be another good reference source.
