Engagement ring broke after 6 days — jeweler saying it’s my fault?
Hi everyone! I’m looking for honest opinions because I’m trying to understand if this is normal or something I should push back on.
EDIT: The warping shape is from me pushing it tighter after I noticed the break in the band so it wouldn’t fall off. There wasn’t any moment where I hit it on something but I guess I could’ve snagged it on something??
I recently got engaged and my ring has a ~5 carat diamond on a thin band (around 1.5mm). I originally requested a plain gold band that was 1.8 mm (should’ve gone even thicker) but the ring I received was thinner with pave diamonds that I didn’t order either.
I’ve only had the ring for 6 days, and it broke unexpectedly while I was just wearing it. No impact, no dropping, nothing unusual. I guess I could’ve snagged it on something unknowingly but I didn’t even notice the break until my friend pointed it out on my finger.
When I brought it back, the employee told me that this type of damage is caused by impact and directly said it would not happen without something like that.
That’s what’s confusing me because from my perspective, it broke under normal wear. Now I’ve been reading that thinner bands (especially with pave) may not be ideal for larger stones, so I’m wondering if this could actually be a structural/design issue.
EDIT: my fiancé picked up the final ring without me and I did not see it until he proposed. He didn’t know the band was wrong so he confirmed it looked okay and paid his remaining balance.
They’re currently reviewing it with regional management, but I’d really appreciate any insight:
• Is 1.5mm with pave too delicate for a stone this size?
• Should a ring break after only 6 days of normal wear?
• Has anyone had something similar happen, and did your jeweler take responsibility?
Thank you so much in advance! I really appreciate any input!

Joining the club!
My boyfriend fiancé and I went ring shopping at the end of February and picked one out. I knew it wouldn’t arrive until April, so I definitely wasn’t expecting him to propose the following weekend. He used a stand in blue raspberry ring pop (about 200 carats lol).
But Yesterday the ring arrived and I love it. 😍 It is a cushion diamond. I knew I wanted low profile and solitaire.
I have realized I don’t know how to photograph a hand. So here is the post-manicure pic, the side profile, the pre-manicure pic, and required inspection pic.

HELP!! A prong broke and I cant decide how to go about repairing my ring
So the other day I was drying my hands and a prong got tangled up in a tiny little thread and I didn’t notice so I walked away and it YANKED out and broke the prong. Now Im paranoid and feel like I need a more secure setting (Like bezel). Tell me your opinions on which option I should do, or if I should just have the prong repaired and call it a day. Thanks!
