Has anyone ever heard of this phenomenon? I admit, I never had. An aquaintance was asking asking around about that the other day. She said her diamond ring had been nice and white when her husband bought it for her a couple of years ago. Now she says it''s cloudy and greenish yellow. We asked her if she''d tried to clean it, or taken it to a jeweler to be cleaned. She said that she had, but it didn''t help. She claims that her jeweler told her that the discoloration was because they lived out in the country, and that well water or hard water could discolor a diamond. Is this true? Has anyone else ever heard of that? I''ve seen this woman''s diamonds, and to be honest, they do look kind of dingy and cloudy looking to me. I was wondering if there is anything to this hard water/well water thing.
