Worth it to fix this ring?

Worth it to fix this Vera Wang ring (circa 2011) it lost a stone and I don’t know what this would run me or if I should retire it…

would love to see more pictures, it looks lovely,
im sure this is an easy fix, i would not retire it at all
but before i sourced a new diamond i would get the others checked as they may be loose

2011 and this is the first time it lost a melee stone? Vera Wang should use you in an ad.

I would definitely look into replacing the stone. A jeweler can give you an estimate before you commit to the repair. Looks like that is the only thing wrong with it - definitely repair, not retire!

That will be very inexpensive to repair. If you like the ring it’s worth it!

I was going to say the same thing. If you like the ring and still want to wear it, it won't cost very much to have that stone replaced. I recently had one of similar size replaced and I think it was about $150 for the stone and labor.

That's a pretty ring! Definitely worth replacing the tiny melee diamond.

A few years ago I replaced a melee diamond on my ruby ring and it cost me $50 for the diamond, and not much more for the labor (I don't remember the exact amount, I want to say an additional $30). Labor prices have gone up since then, but I believe the melee prices (in my area) are about the same as the were then. So less than $100 total for my repair.
