My engagement ring was a cut cornered rectangular diamond, bezel set in platinum, from a very reputable maker. One day I noticed that the diamond, while not falling out, was loose!! So I took it back to the store and they are checking it out. While Im waiting to see what they find, I would like know if anyone else had this happen or if you know how this could happen? I take it off when cleaning, cooking, washing dishes.

I had picked out my own ring and knew I was getting it, but didn’t know when, although I had a feeling it was going to be 22nd birthday present. We went to Six Flags, where we had our first date, and stood in front of the fountain to get our photo taken. He told me some line about his sisters friend who worked there who said they have to take so many photos before they can take a break and felt sorry for them, we never take photos so that was good excuse. When the person was taking the photo, he pulled out the box and gave me my ring. His great line was “Well, here you go!” lol. He’s a great guy but not good with words.
The bad thing was, though, the ring didn’t fit my finger at all and had to be resized before I could even wear it! During the resizing process, a diamond was knocked loose and it took nearly a month to get it repaired properly. Crazy, huh?
At least we have a good story out of it right? At the time I was crushed but I think its funny now.

So, how did it happen?
I enjoyed all of the stories and I have no idea why anyone would give any of them a thumbs down. I’m putting this question up for vote because I feel there is no best answer as all answers are lovely.

what should i look for when trying to select the perfect cushion cut diamond? should i concentrate more on finding a square cushion as opposed to a rectangular cushion?

if the dimentions of the diamond are not as close to a perfect square, will the cushion diamond loose some of its sparkle?

Thanks for your answers.

First off, I’m a college student but in July me and my girlfriend are celebrating our five year anniversary, and I want to propose on our vacation (she’s never been to the ocean, so we’re going to this really nice beach in maine). I obviously can’t afford a real ring, and don’t have the credit for loans. I’ve looked into it a lot, and wanted to get some opinions on a simulant diamond. It’s from Diamond Nexus Labs (http://www.diamondnexuslabs.com/jewelry/product_info.php?cPath=3_135&products_id=51), and they look good to me, but I don’t know much about gems. I was thinking of buying a loose princess cut diamond there, and getting her a platinum setting. Would you be able to notice that it wasn’t a real diamond?
My budget is within 2000 if I plan to propose in July, and I’ve talked to my girlfriend about it. When I explained to her my financial limit, she said she doesn’t really care if it’s real, just as long as it is “really sparkly” or something. And from what we’ve talked about, I don’t think a colored stone is an option
Thanks to everyone that answered. I’ve decided the best thing to do is show her everything everyone has said, and let her decide herself what she wants to do.

I need a place that will take my Diamond and set it in a customized engagement ring. As mentioned, I also have loose diamonds for the band.

Will it be easy to find a place to do this and what is generally the price range for the band and these services!

Much Thanks!

Sincerely,

A guy new to this entire process
