Many congratulations on your re-engagem...Hi Lythan<br /><br />Many congratulations on your re-engagement!!! How romantic.<br /><br />Your story made me smile as I too have an engagement ring with a missing "diamond" .. .. well they look like little tiny chips of glass until you have one missing and then suddenly there looks to be a huge hole!!!!<br /><br />My first born kindly took it to work with him one day whilst on work experience from college. He offered to put in the sonic wash system. Apparently all the girls took their jewellery in to clean it and he thought he was doing me a favour in taking it in to "sparkle it up". <br /><br />The poor lad was gutted and emptied the whole system the following day in the hope of finding the missing stone. But of course he didn't. It would have been far too small to find. So mine went into "storage" for sorting another day.<br /><br />A few years later We took the ring to see how much it would cost to have "restored" to its former glory and we were told that I was lucky I hadn't lost more diamonds and the sapphire from the middle. (My ring was shaped like a flower with the sapphire being the centre).<br /><br />We didn't think it would be worth having restored as it had only cost us £45 many, many years previously .. .. but we were surprised to learn that it had actually increased in value to over £300. <br /><br />We couldn't afford to have it restored .. .. and still can't .. .. but perhaps one day! <br /><br />And after all of that .. .. .. your ring is beautiful and your cards are too. <br /><br />Love Jules xxJuleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17929184623066486028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27974252.post-12233751706587623482010-10-03T11:34:09.224+01:002010-10-03T11:34:09.224+01:00Congratulations lol ;-)
