OMG! THE DIAMOND FELL OUT OF MY RING!!

WOW!!...It's AMAZING you found it, I am SO happy to hear that you did

That is so scary.

My friend told me that her stone came loose when her ring was sized. It changed the prong positioning a little bit. Her jeweler reset the stones before it was too late.

That is my biggest nightmare..in fact I HAD a nightmare where it fell out.

That was totally meant to be that you found it!!!!

I am so happy that he found it...wow, imagine it had been swept away?

Ladies, please, please take this advice:

Take your ring (and wedding band if it has diamonds or stones) to a reputable, knowledgeable jeweler at least 2X a year (every 6 months)...at the very least once a year. EVERY ring no matter where purchased or how expensive needs to be checked for wear to the shank (especially if sized), prongs and stone security. A jeweler will be able to tighten stones (if necessary), clean your ring and remove debris that may cause the stone to loosen over time as well as determine if there is porosity or cracks on the shank.

Don't wait until it's too late!

Excellent advice and most jewlers do it for free!

First, I have to say that you guys are AWESOME! Thank you for all your kindnes, encouragement and advise!

Okay so we dropped the diamond and the setting off last night. I do have it insured. I have all paper on it also - the documentation from the jeweler when we bought the ring, AND the one from the Jewelry Judge. He's going to re-set it with six prongs - instead of four like before. He's also going to set it in platinum (instead of white gold). I told him that I just want to be able to feel secure enough to LEAVE THE HOUSE WITH IT ON MY FINGER again!!

FI is so sweet though - when we were walking to the office - he told me he was taking me for crab cakes at my favorite Mid-Town restaurant to celebrate the ring being back on my finger. So when we found out that the guy was going to need a day, and he could see the disappointment on my face - he made it a 'Date Night'.

I love that man.

here is a tibit... take tweezers and test your diamond every so often. try and move it back and forth if it moves get it fixed...

i learned that from a jewler, thats what they do he said.
