Looking Pretty at last.

I recently inherited one of my mothers rings. It had been her engagement ring model no 3 turned into model no 4 after an unfortunate tumble saw a huge hunk of the centre diamond broken off. While a replacement diamond was sourced, making it model 4, a part of the setting remained unrepaired and of the halo diamonds one was chipped and another had a carbon fleck big enough to make it grey. It really grated on my nerves, easy to fix surely, Mum, please, just do it. Nope, she never got around to it.
The day after I was the grateful recipient of said ring it was off to the jewellers for rehab.
And she is back, the missing motif repaired and those two ugly diamonds replaced.
Ta Da.

She is lovely! I like seeing second life brought to pre-loved pieces like this. Great job.

It’s stunning! Did you lose your mom? If so I’m so sorry. Enjoy the ring! It’s spectacular!

No, thankfully. Mum is still with us but she isn’t wearing right hand rings anymore hence my early inheritance.
though I suspect she’ll want it back seeing how lovely it now looks
