Hi - I was given a round cut, H grade VS1 1.1 carat diamond engagement ring two weeks ago. I did feel a tiny nick along the side of the stone when I received it, but thought nothing of it as I assumed it was part of the facets. Within a week I noticed a small crack in the stone, and now there is a crack across the whole stone!
The ring was bought from a reputable jewler in Hatton Garden, London. I''ve taken it back to the shop and they''ve sent it off to their lab and said ominously "we will agree a way forward next week". I''m now spending a dreadful weekend worrying about what might happen. My fiance is also very upset as he chose the diamond and was very careful to use a jewler as he felt it would guarentee quality and peace of mind.
Does anyone have any advice for me? I worry that as I didn''t say anything about the nick in the side when I got it, I will have no recourse.
I did put the ring on my house insurance when I received it - but don''t think we should be claiming - I think the shop should be replacing!!
Any help/advice much appreciated.
