Any instructions for having my jeweler / setter set my Asha?

Most any competent setter or jeweler can set your Asha diamond simulant for you - if they can set a CZ, they can set an Asha which is more durable than regular CZ.  There are just a few tips needed. 

We've got a complete set of helpful tips (and a printer ready page as well) that you can print and give to them, and it will give all the info needed - you can view the online page here (link to the printer page is on this page as well):

One primary item - you must inform the jeweler or setter that it is a simulant, and not a diamond.  We have had experience with customer's jewelers contacting us in a panic after damaging an Asha while setting it, stating that they did not realize it was not a diamond, and thus treated it like a diamond (i.e. exposed to high heat) rather than a simulant.  

While this is further feedback that the Asha really does look just like a diamond, you don't want to have your Asha damaged by not being up front with your jeweler or setter.

    Can I take my Asha to the jeweler to be cleaned when I take my other Diamond jewelry? Is there any form of cleaning that they might use that would not be appropiate for my Asha? Is it safe to use a soft toothbrush and toothpaste on my Asha and on my Diamonds?

    No special precautions need to be taken for cleaning the Asha stones other than that the stones should not be polished or buffed via a sunshine cloth or any other metal polishing cream or clothes and extreme heat need to be avoided (i.e. do not touch the Asha stone to the tip of the steam cleaner if you wish to steam clean it and never boil the Asha stone). A soft toothbrush with some warm water and dish detergent will work well. Christine

    I have a three stone diamond ring with the middle diamond missing. I'd like to replace it with an Asha stone. I don't know what size to buy. I didn't save the box that contained the card with the specs. on it
