I have only learnt recently that some jewellers send their precious stones to be set by professional stone setters for insurance purposes.. Is this in the event that the stone was to break or be damaged that the stone setters insurance covers this? Does this also cover if the client was to lose the diamond out of the setting later?
I agreed to set a diamond for my friend's engagement ring but am now unsure if I should be sending this off elsewhere as I have no form of insurance cover for this situation. I'm confident in my claw and rub over setting skills but would like to find out what is common practice and what other small designer makers do?
