Hi, my fiancee just had her platinum ring sized down significantly (1.5 sizes...ooops!) and I am really not happy at all with the results. I bought the six prong Tiffany style ring from Whiteflash and it looked great but now the band is VERY thin at the bottom (no more knife-edge) and generally doesn''t look very well polished/clean. The jeweler apparently told her that in time the seam may appear as a slightly different color and that it was already resized so she would probably see two seams. Is this normal? Did they used white gold solder, should they have used platinum solder (they knew it was a plat ring)? Does Whiteflash sell settings that have been previously resized with white gold solder?
Also, the inclusions which were obvious under 10x magnification are now in a different location. Is it common/neccesary to remove the diamond from its setting to resize a ring?
If these things are a problem, what should I do? I am just afraid that the setting has been effected structurally; is this a legit concern?
Thanks for all your help!
