I apologize, I have a feeling this will be long.
On vacation, back in November, I knocked a stone loose in my e-ring. Well, I took it back to the jeweler and they had it for a month and didn't fix it. They couldn't see anything wrong with it. I was so pissed that I started taking it to other jewelers around town.
I have called everyone and taken it in to dozens of places. Nobody can or will work on it. It's too difficult a setting. So, I am back to square one. At this point, I may have to try and track down the manufacturer, but I doubt that's going to happen.
I am just so sad. I probably won't be able to wear it ever again, and I can't afford to buy a new center stone to replace it.
I know, there are worse things in life, but I am bummed I can't wear my ring.

That's the problem. It's not just one stone, it's four. That's why nobody will work on it. The setting takes special equipment. I can replace it with one stone, but I don't have that kind of money laying around.

Are the stones all the same size?
Could you use one for a ring and get the others set into earrings and a pendent??

I'm sorry...
Maybe just set one and then when you have baby girls and they are old enough you can set one in a ring for them!!!?
