getting princess mounted today..what to look for after it''s done...corners?? w/in

[vandelay101]

Hey guys....I left my diamond overnight at a very loyal and trustworthy store in my hometown. They are going to mount it and appraise it today and should be done sometime this afternoon.

What should I look for when I go to pick it up. I don''t want to be rude and be like, "put that sucker under the mic so i know you didn''t switch it!!"

How do I go about asking and what do I look for. There is a feather that can be seen under the scope.

Should I look for any damage to the corners. Can damage be see after it''s already in the mounting or is is very hard to tell. I want to make sure the job is done right.

Thanks guys,

Robert O.

I think it is the case that if there is any damage you would need to claim it of your insurance company. I believe jewellers only cover stones they sell to you if they are damaged during mounting. I have seen it written here before that we cannot expect a jeweller selling us a say $500 dollar mounting and setting our stone to be responsible for a $5000 diamond. It wouldn't make sense for him to get profit on selling a mount and setting a stone if he had to be insured for that amount
