the diamond in my engagement ring keeps getting loose. When I first got it it was really loose so I had it tightened. The jeweler said there was always a chance the corner could chip while tightening it so he didn’t tighten it all the way. So now it is loose again. It just slides a little bit when i push it with my finger nail. It is a princess cut (square) with a prong holding it at each corner. Should I be worried that it will fall out? If I take it to get tightened at a different store should I be worried about the corner chipping if they tighten it too much?
I dont have insurance on it and my fiance bought it from a jeweler that is several states away from where I am… eek

I bought a really beautiful sapphire several years ago nd finally had the money to have it set into a ring. Since it’s slightly off in shape I had a custom setting with a halo of smal diamonds and a plain shank done in white gold.
The first two things that were wrong were that i had asked for it to be prong set and it was bezel set, and the diamonds were set all crooked and not well done at all. I mentioned the problem and she straightened out the diamonds for the most part. I was willing to live with it. But now just two months later the bezel set sapphire is loose. What can I do? The company is called elsarings.com

Hello,
I have a 2.84 (loose) Old Mine diamond that I would like to sell. The diamond has been graded by E.G.L as 2.84 carats, S-T in color, and Vs2 clarity. I am looking for a buyer for the diamond. I recently lost my job and I am in need of selling it for a fair price. The diamond has been appraised for over $12,000, However, I will sell the diamond for as little as $5,000. I have several pics of the diamond as well as a pic of the certification. If anyone can point me in a good direction in where I can find a buyer, that would be most helpful. I have tried many online places such as jewelry websites that have classifieds as well as ebay. Most people interested are either scammers wanting me to use an (escrow service), or possible jewelers who want me to send the diamond to them so they can look at it. I don’t want to send my diamond anywhere unless it is to a buyer.
Thanks for taking the time to read this
Rudy

My wonderful boyfriend surprised me with a gorgeous betrothal ring (kind of an engagement ring jr.). It’s made of white gold and diamonds. I never take it off, except to cook with ground beef or to do clay crafts. He’s concerned that I might lose the diamonds in the shower. He thinks they may come loose and slip out. I know there are lots of women who never take off their wedding/engagement rings with diamonds in them. And I know that diamonds and gold are tough materials that can withstand a LOT. But this ring is the most precious object that I own, and I won’t take chances.

How many of you wear diamonds 24/7? Has anyone had one come loose?

It was made at Jared, if that’s an important detail.
No way did he get me a lower metal and claim it was gold! He’s a romantic. Besides, I’ve seen both the receipt (had to have it sized) and the mark on the band.

Thanks so much for your answers. I hope this puts his mind at ease.

Also, my boyfriend’s grandmother gave him a nice diamond solitaire ring to use but it is too small for the ring I like. It was such a sweet gesture and he really wants to use it in some way. The setting comes with the tiny diamonds but the center stone is a CZ. Any ideas?
