I received a lovely 3-stone spess and diamond ring set in platinum, which I posted in the SMTR forum: show-me-the-ring/oval-2-36-ct-spessartite-in-a-3-stone-platinum-setting-t146363.html
I'm preparing to approach the jeweler who sold it to us to talk about replacing one of the diamonds. My question for the CS experts is whether I need to worry about the spess itself? Should it be removed from the setting along with the diamond or can it stay put? Can it withstand whatever heat is necessary in the re-setting process?
I hope these aren't silly questions as I am a complete neophyte when it comes to colored stones!
Thanks!
