    I would take a good look at her life style, work, etc. If this stain
    was not present until after she bought the ring and wore it a while
    she may be inadvertently exposing it to something that can cause the
    stain. Has the stain always been in the same place and only the same
    place? What was your source for the gold alloy? I would suspect a
    reaction with the copper in the alloy rather than a contaminant cast
    in by accident. 

    I am looking forward to see the answer to this problem as I like to
    work with Rose Gold.
