Hi all, I'm a first time user but was hoping someone could shed some light on my situation. I'm just married and got my engagement ring just over three years ago. I spent a long time looking and in the end choose a sapphire main stone in a platinum and diamond setting. My problem is last week the main stone broke and having chosen a rub over style I understood this was not likely to ever happen. My job does not entail anything physical and I take it off at night time and basically due to the amount spent on it I'm very careful with it, probably even too careful. I just can't understand after three years and with the setting I chose that the sapphire is broken- its .8 ceylon(lighter blue).It doesn't make any sense. Of course the jewellers are convinced I hit it hard of something or at a certain angle but I can guarantee I didn't. Could it have cracked or got damaged when getting cleaned? Could there have being a fault in the stone? Has anyone had this happen in a run over style sapphire engagemet ring ever? Have googled and researched but this is meant to the second hardest gem after diamond and I can't see reports of the same problem. As you've guessed I'm unbelievably upset.
Any feedback or comments would be appreciated. Feel a little cheated after havin my ring for such a short time and for being too carful.
