<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 309633, member: 5833"]My best take on it is that someone loved this ring very much, wore it regularly, maybe rarely took it off, to the point that the stone became so scuffed & unstable in its setting that some restoration was done. As the ring is not so valuable as all that, it must have had great sentimental value for the owner to invest in refurbishment. I'm making this up, but hey...could be. Or close, but no <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie32" alt=":cigar:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
