Hello,
I just received my ring back from the jeweler. It is a 14kt yellow gold bezel set sapphire surrounded by channel set diamonds. I had to take it in to have the diamond channel and sapphire bezel rebuilt as it had worn down from wear causing loose stones.
It seems as though the firecoat was left on the top of the stone. Is there any way to remove it other than having the stone repolished? I have tried researching it online and haven''t been able to come up with much.
The ring turned out beautifully except for having the funky layer of firecoat left on the sapphire. I am concerned about repolishing causing weight loss and am also not overly keen on the thought of the stone having to be pulled and then reset after having spent so much to have the ring repaired.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you very much for any help you might be able to offer me!!
