Does anyone have a jeweler they really trust in the city? The diamond on my engagement ring has come loose in its setting and I need someone to fix it. It's a custom piece and I'd take it back to the folks who made it, but they're in Iowa and I don't know when I"m going to get back there next... :(

There is a place called Marcello Jewelers at 5843 W Belmont (Belmont and Austin). The man who owns it and his wife work there. It is a little shop, but they will do most repairs while you wait and your ring never leaves your site. They repair it in front of you behind a glass wall. My family has taken many pieces to them and they have been great. Good Luck!
My husband has purchased all of my jewelry from Brett Swiderek at Noral Jewelers...I think they're in Orland Park or Tinley Park. I'm not sure where you're located but he is great. The first time I took my engagement ring in there (for a loose stone, just like you) he had me look at the stone under a microscope when I dropped it off, he "fingerprinted" it by giving me a piece of paper that showed the location of the one minor flaw on the diamond, and then had me look at it under the microscope again when I picked it up to make sure it was my diamond. And he made a point to tell me to always do that anytime I have to leave it with a jeweler for some reason. I really trust him.
I love JanDee on Diversey, just west of Racine in Lincoln Park. My husband and I got our rings there. My physician actually recommended them to me and they are really wonderful. Give them a try.

This is the place we go to and trust. They recently fixed my engagement ring as well. We've been using them since we were married.
