I have a question about ring maintenance if you had your ring made/set not locally. What do you do for regular maintenance? Do you have it inspected locally and only send to the jeweler who made it for repairs? What about pave settings? Do they have to be sent back even for minor repairs, like replacing tiny pave stones? What about things like resizing? Cleaning? Polishing? How much of a pain is it? Do you think it makes sense to try to find someone locally or should location not be a major factor when choosing where to have your ring made? I've had a solitaire for several years that basically required no maintenance but am now considering a more intricate setting and wondering if having it made long distance is going to be a pain in the long run.
