Hi everyone,
Just wondering in what situation spacers are used.
I've seen them worn between two diamond bands to prevent the diamonds from rubbing against each other. But doesn't then the diamonds just rub against the spacer? Or is that the point?
And is it ok for the diamonds to rub against the spacer? Won't it mess up the diamonds?
I'm asking b/c I am thinking about wearing my plain platinum band with my ring temporarily until I can get a notched band made. But I think the diamonds on the prongs rubs against the platinum? I'm not worried about the band getting scratched. This thing is beat up anyway. I just don't want to wear away at the diamonds. Could that happen?
Sorry if this is a stupid and obvious question. Gotta ask.
