I love Laurie Edison's jewelry. Other than stuff I inherited from my mother, and bits and pieces of jewelry I've been given over the years, the bulk of my jewelry is either Laurie's make, or
elisem's. Which makes it all the more frustrating/enraging/depressing that a stone fell out of one of my rings yesterday--and of course I didn't notice until later.
It is a silver setting with a "watermelon" agate (I think that's it): a piece of stone that is greenish-gray around the edges and pink in the center. I'd been wearing it a lot lately. Now, of course, it's just the setting, and I don't know where the stone is, and so I can't take the stone and setting back to Laurie and ask her to make it all better, please.
I was wearing the ring, but it was made to be worn. No one else lost the stone. The ring was solidly made--all I can think is that one of the prongs got just loose enough that the stone fell out. I really, really want to blame someone and be angry at them, because I really loved that ring. But really, no one is to blame, it just happened, which is so unsatisfying that I sorta want to weep.
Ah, well. Off to the east coast in three hours. Will check in from the road.
