Re: End rings

What you're looking for are called socket rings.

How vintage is the Noblet?

If it's a Leblanc-built one, then you can use Vito socket rings. You'll still have to fit them so they're secure as they probably won't be a perfect fit.

Or you could have them machined from either solid nickel silver stock or thick walled nickel silver if they're unplated, or machined from brass and either nickel or silver plated. Or formed from 2.5mm thick sheet metal bent into a ring shape, silver soldered/brazed at the join, then machined both inside and out to the required dimensions and profiles if the originals were made like that as they often were on vintage clarinets.
