I have this ring from HSN http://www.hsn.com/jewelry/jean-dousset-3-4ct-absolute-and-simulated-amethyst-ring_p-6490540_xp.aspx I've worn it for 4 months or so and I LOVE it! Today one of the little stones in the halo fell out. They no longer have my size in it at HSN. Do any of the board jewelers fix sterling silver/cz rings? I'm guessing none of the jewelers around me will fix it.

Wink will work on silver/cz rings. Joyce sent some from QVC in to him for stone swaps.

The only hitch is that they can't be plated at all.

Bummer. I think it's rhodium plated.

i think rhodium plated pieces are okay - because the rhodium can be re-plated.

i *think* it's the platinum-plated pieces (Epiphany, etc) that can't be worked on, because that plating cracks and can't be repaired.

HSN doesn't repair it if something like that happens?

I think they will repair if you buy the jewelry insurance they offer. I didn't of course... I will next time for sure.

I hope it holds up for you too. It's really a gorgeous ring. I get a lot of compliments on it.

I had a beautiful Asscher Sim spinel ring from Dousset and lost a stone within a few months too! It has sat in my jewelry box ever since. Makes me wonder about the DK uternity ones that are so popular now. frown
