The price on that has sooo many different variables. Is your ring platinum or gold? whats the carat? if you have a platinum ring, and I’m adding platinum to the setting it’s going to be a lot more expensive than a 10K. But often a 10K when I bend it to remove the stone and replace it, breaks instead of bends. Then it’s going to have more prongs added.
Size of the diamond really matters. A larger diamond is going to take more prongs to set. A small one like a chip is also going to be harder since i have to raise it up and work really hard to make it look right, being so small.
How easy is it to mount? Is it a solitare right now, or inlaid into the band like a catedral setting? Solitare takes a lot less labor time.
A setting change? Now you are talking major differences. Settings can range in price from ANYTHING. I have settings in here that just the setting is $3,000.
There are just far far too many variables on here for anyone to give you a price that is even close to accurate. It’s impossible. I can tell you removing a stone and replacing it is not as easy at it seems. It’s easier with a new setting. Kinda like fixing a bone. Much easier to set a currently broken bone than a completely healed, bad set that has to be rebroken and reset.
For approximation budgeting purposes, if it’s between half carat and carat. Gold, not platinum. Solitare setting. with less than 2 prongs needed to be added or repaired. I’d say roughly $200-300. Go to several different jewelers and get multiple quotes. Then don’t go to the cheapest.
Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful.
It really depends on the jeweler. I had the same thing done and they also added more prongs so I would have six instead of three. They had to take all the side diamonds out so they could re-size it and place them back in when finished. Then they added another millimeter of gold to the band. It only cost me like $110. They were a reputable store as well. I would suggest taking it to a few jeweler’s and seeing what they quote you. Then decide from there which one fits your budget best.
