I had a local Japanese craftsmen melt down some old gold single earrings, broken gold chains, etc. and cast me the ring 34 years ago for my wedding ring, different than Donna's. It was a nice looking not small, and not large ring.

We did that route because it was cheap back then (just getting married) , I had the old gold and he cast it for like $100. I've been sick and lost a few pounds, including a slight bit of weight loss on my fingers. It just disappeared, as in slipped off my finger a few days ago, no idea where. I was working in the yard, and remember having it on, I've looked in the pool, the spa, all the trash in case it came off during hand cleaning, inside the engine compartment of the 911, garbage disposal, etc. its just gone. Thinking of getting him to cast me a new one of the exact same ring, he's still in business. Maybe $750-$1,000 in 14K gold. I could buy something else for 1/2 the price, but I don't care.


Sorry, had to rant/feel ****ty.
