Well..I received a ring on July 13th, and today, over a month later, I still cannot wear it because it has been reset three times, very WRONG and different from what I wanted. The first time it looked wonderful, but was reset in a different head due to a prong breaking off. I picked it up yesterday, and the prongs are HUGE again, covering far too much of the diamond. My 1.76 carat diamond now looks like a 1.25 because there is so little of the diamond now showing, and so much metal! This has been a real nightmare! I guess what I am forced to do is dish out more $$ and start over with a new setting etc. The store will no longer help me out, claiming I am being too picky. The ring I picked up yesterday has prongs that catch on everything, the head is leaning to one side, the prongs are semi-polished, and some prongs have eneven, and big gaps from the setter using the wrong tool to create the grooves that hold the girdle of the diamond. I refuse to ship my diamond anywhere out of the country, so I would like to know if there is a ring mount made by a Vendor online that will ship the item to me here in Canada, and hopefully have a GOOD setter reset my diamond for the 4th time! Any recommendations would be great. I don''t care what the mount looks like at this point, something plain gold (no side diamonds) with the head in a 2 carat size already inlcuded. I just want something that will make my diamond pop, the focus being on the diamond, and not the prongs! Thanks
