Problems with my e-ring!

Its hard to explain my e-ring, but basically, on the sides of the center stone there are like 8 very small diamonds. They dont have prongs holding them in -- they're almost just set into the setting itself-- kind of like pave (I think thats what its called). Anyway....in the year and a half that I've had the ring, 2 of those tiny diamonds have fallen out. The second one fell out just yesterday!!! I'm not rough on my ring at all -- i NEVER bang it around, I dont wear it to bed or in the shower, i dont wear it to cook, clean, or anything else where it could get dirty or damaged. I'm taking it back to the jeweler tomorrow to have him replace that diamond AGAIN, but about 2 weeks ago I went to another jeweler to get it cleaned and she wouldnt clean it because she said 3 of those tiny diamonds were loose. Since there arent any prings holding them in, I'm not really sure how they would go about tightening them and I dont understand why they keep falling out! Anyone have similar problems with their rings and anyone have any suggestions? I dont want to get a new setting, but I'm starting to worry that I might have to if this is going to continue to be a problem

pave stones pop out time to time, i had a friend who had a stunning pave wedding band, and even like everyday wear [ she was working as a receptionist] that time and just hitting the keyboard typing would eventually make her pop out a stone here and there. eventually she got fed up and changed her setting.

im not sure what your case is exactly, but have you tried asking the orginal jeweler of the ring why it is happening...or any jeweler, they would know best ...

one of my pave diamonds fell out once. i brought it back to the jeweler who made my ring and even tho they are in a setting, there are still tiny prongs that hold them in place. he said mine broke. i dont know how tho, i guess it just happens. so he added another prong inside the setting to keep it in place. hopefully it wont happen again. but i would definitely ask your jeweler. HTH
