She probably would say that she was working her fingers to the bone. Besides that she is right handed and the rings of course are on the left. Also the rings were bought in Africa so they were made of inferior South African gold.

Hi Searle,don't blame that poor woman for wearing out her rings!Every woman will do that if she wears 2 gold rings side by side.Its a law of physics.2 items made of the same material,when rubbed against each other will wear out a lot faster.That's why you find a steel axle running in a bronze bearing, even though bronze is a lot softer then steel.I have repaired a lot of these rings.As long as women insist on wearing 2 rings side by side that will happen.Preventing the rubbing by welding or clamping the rings together would prevent a good part of that wear and prolong the live of the rings,but how do you tell a female customer that without offending her? Some take that advise, but just as many don't.
