I just went in for a simple 30 minute ring resize and they basically stole my family heirloom diamond!!

I am still shaking while writing this. I honestly cannot believe a local business would treat a customer like this. On November 12 I took my engagement ring to a jeweler just to get it resized and they confirmed the diamond was perfect before they started working on it. However, when I got the ring back just thirty minutes later, the stone had multiple huge cracks in it that were never there before. The staff and even the goldsmith admitted they messed up and their own paperwork literally says cracked diamond. So I thought they would do the right thing and replace it. Everything changed a month later when the new owner suddenly claimed the cracks were just natural inclusions and started acting incredibly hostile toward me. He actually laughed in my face when I mentioned getting an independent gemologist involved and tried to force me to sign a paper saying the damage was already there. When I refused to sign, he threatened to sue me and post fake negative things about me online if I shared my story. I have already talked to a lawyer and sent a formal demand for my property but they are still ignoring me and won't even say where my diamond is. This stone has so much sentimental value to my family and it breaks my heart that it is just gone. Please be so careful about who you trust with your jewelry and make sure you document every single detail before you let anyone touch your pieces. #Jewelry #Scam #LocalBusiness #Ring #BadExperiences

My grandmother gave me this ring for Christmas to inspire me and I was honestly speechless

I grew up on romantic movies. And always thought a ring would be the ultimate proof that I was finally chosen and loved. 💍I hit 28 recently and started feeling really down about the fact that my life hasn't turned into a movie scene yet. My grandmother must have sensed my sadness. And she gave me this stunning custom mandarin garnet ring for Christmas! She told me to never enter a marriage just for a piece of jewelry. She even chose this specific orange stone so my life would always be vivid and passionate on its own. 🥹😢 I love it so much. It is a reminder that love comes from people who actually know me and not just from a romantic partner. I would love to hear about the most meaningful pieces of jewelry you have received that had nothing to do with a proposal. 💗💗💗 #ringshare #mandaringarnet #familyhistory #selflove #Jewelry

I Love the Ring My Boyfriend Secretly Designed, But I Might Cry Over the Prongs.

My boyfriend and I went to the UK for a vacation this summer and decided to do some fun ring browsing. I went into total detail describing my ideal ring to the jeweler, and we left it at that. What I did not know is that my amazing boyfriend secretly paid for the jeweler to create the exact ring I described. I was completely shocked when I found out. He does not know I have seen the final result, and I am mostly ecstatic, but I have a major, silent issue. I am about 85% satisfied. I never specified wanting round prongs, and they are really bothering me. I thought the default setting for a stone this style was generally claw prongs. I am so grateful and would never say anything to him, but I cannot stop fixating on the round prongs. My question is for the jewelers and engagement ring experts out there. Since we live in the US and the ring was made in the UK, getting adjustments from the original shop is going to be incredibly difficult. Is this something I can easily get fixed or modified by a US jeweler later on. Or is there some secret benefit to round prongs that I am missing. Help me feel better about this beautiful ring. #EngagementRing #Jewelry #Ring #HelpMe

My late grandma worked at a British munitions factory. So why did she have this bracelet with a symbol like THIS???

My British grandmother died before I was born. I inherited some of her belongings and was going through a box of her old things when I found this tiny bracelet. It’s a bit of a shock because it looks like it has a swastika on it. I do not think she was a Nazi. It also has a small flag on it with the letters "SHDG" and the word "monterosa." And if you need more information, I remember my grandfather served in the Canadian army in World War II and met her at a dance in Britain while she was working at an ammunitions factory. I am just hoping that I can find out what this is and figure out why she might have had it. I am really hoping someone out there can help me solve this mystery. #FamilyHistory #WWII #Jewelry #Mystery #Swastika #HelpNeeded #Jewelry #FamilySecrets #FamilyStories
