I have not been able to find an online source for sterling rings made
from antique buttons. You might want to check local craft fairs, flea
markets, and small boutiques in your area.
Several years ago, the gift shop at the Biltmore Estate in North
Carolina used to sell beautiful earrings made from old buttons. I
bought a pair, and they always attract comments when I wear them. The
earrings were handcrafted by "Grandmother's Buttons," of New Orleans.
Perhaps this would be a source for button rings, as well.
Grandmother's does not have an online catalog, as far as I can tell,
but you can get contact information here:
