    Writing is an interesting method of communication because the reader
    takes an active role; assigning tone, visualizing the writer and
    subjectively deciding if they like/respect/dislike the writer and/or
    agree or disagree with the writer's conclusions. 

    I have found in life that one should never assume and one should
    never assign motives to others. I have also discovered that it is
    very hard to be unique in a medium that has been around as long as
    jewelry, so almost every designer has pieces that resemble another's;
    you included. This is not theft. This is that there are only so many
    variables and while occasionally, a jeweler will create a signature
    look that is fresh and unique, (i.e., Kretchmer, Schlumberger, etc);
    the vast majority do not. 

    There isn't anything you can do because she didn't do anything
    wrong; however, much you "know" she did.
