I was recently engaged about 3 weeks ago and I've been so in love with my diamond ring (round halo ring) that I've been cleaning it in warm dish soap water every 2 days. I would use a soft bristle tooth brush and carefully brush any grease/debris on the accent stones and center diamond's face. I'm extra careful about the prongs and would hold the face of the center stone while gently brushing the pavilion of the diamond. Yesterday, I made the mistake of using the old toothbrush head of my electric toothbrush (just the head, not the actual electric toothbrush) and I noticed today that the diamond is uneven! I can hear a little noise when I shake the ring. Should I bring it in? What will they need to do to even it? Would I risk chipping the diamond if I didn't bring it in?

The prongs looks secure and the diamond does not move when I push the diamond with my pinky..thanks so much!

Rattling means it is loose in the prongs, do not wear it and put it in a secure container that will catch the diamond if it comes out.
The diamond will act like a chain saw and eat up the prongs quickly.
Contact the maker for further instructions.

Thank you!!
 
Your welcome.
Sorry that this happened to your ring.

No worries. There's not much I can do to prevent it from happening right? :)
 
You have received good advice. Take it off and take it in. Do not procrastinate. Keep an eye on it when it has been finished. If it keeps happening, you will need to discuss a more permanent solution with your jeweler.

As everyone said, take it back in ASAP!

Also, get a mini ultrasonic cleaner :) I bought mine for 20 USD and I can't believe how clean my beauties came out.

Congrats and hope you can enjoy your ring again soon.
