i get to keep it

We went to the jeweler last night and I didn’t have to turn over my ring like I thought I would. They are going to write up a quote for me on how much a matching band will cost. They have to take an existing ring and etch it to match my engagement ring. The sales guy recommends that I eventually get the two rings, for lack of a better term, “fused” together. I haven’t decided what I want to do, but I’m leaning towards his recommendation. The reason he suggested I do this is because over time two rings rubbing against each other will wear them down. I suppose I’ll know more once I get the quote for the band.

UPDATE: As it turns out I can “tack” the rings together afterwards. Jewelry dealers are so strange. Each one of them has a different idea of how to sell a ring.

    What’s the difference between fusing and tacking?

    that’s a good question. I have no idea…. I guess I’ll find out.
