Am I being too picky?

It seems this band is a bit crooked... can you see how the diamonds in the center don’t touch the desk surface and the diamond that appears a bit dark? Is this worth asking the vendor to fix? When I wear it with my engagement ring, one of the diamonds in the center looks dark. I am not sure if that’s because my engagement ring creates a shadow or because the stone is set crooked. Thanks in advance for your input.

Does the dark stone always look dark no matter how you turn the ring? If you are not happy with it, I would certainly relay this to the vendor as most would be happy to make it right for you. Who made your ring?

When I wear it along, it looks like the diamond is set in slightly crooked. Not sure if that is "normal" or whether it is fixable at this point.

Is it normal for the ring not to be totally straight? You can see a tiny gap in the above photos toward the diamonds in the center. Like the center diamonds are a bit smaller than the outside diamonds...

I tried to take a photo of the diamond that appears set a bit crooked.

It would bug me, send it back to be fixed.

@AprilBaby can you see in the photos what I’m describing?

Is it possible the diamonds are slightly smaller (in the middle) and a slight curve in the middle as well to accommodate it sitting more flush with an e-ring? That’s what it looks like to me, based on your pics.

And yes, that one diamond/seat does kinda look a little wonky to me in the pic you have with the arrow pointing to it.

Yes, the stone is tilted and the ring is not flat. The crooked stone would drive me bonkers.

How long have you had and been wearing the ring? Is it brand new?

Hi @tyty333 - Less than two weeks. Actually, I had the ring once before and after having it less than a week, one of the diamonds fell out. I am trying my best to be patient but make sure the ring is excellent quality.

Sorry for the long delay... The ring is made with 11 7 pointer stones. It is a size 5.

That would drive me crazy! You're not being too picky. I'd have the vendor fix it.

Did the vendor fix your ring ?
