Default Re: Looking for help from Jewelers. Repair gone bad!!

If there is going to be a next time, could you not just pop the stone out?
With a thin piece of silver with a 90degree angle cut to a blade, you could just put it inbetween the stone and the bezel and get the bezel loose.
Take the stone out and solder what you want.
Might take longer than you would like, but it would keep the stone alive.
Still, these are hard calls to make. Every sytuation is different and every stone is too.

Hope you get this fixed to both comferts.
