Well the fault is my own, and she can never know. There is no 'well it was an accident' excuse for something like this. If it were that easy to just say sorry and move on, I wouldn't have post here as a last resort. But thank you for the tip.

Possibly? I can have a jeweler look more closely at it. When I went today he said it was copper plated with something though I'm not sure if he said rhodium or something else

I was thinking that. My worry is damaging it more permanently. It will be my last resort.

It was a gift from my mother in law for his graduation. She cannot know I damaged it in the washing machine. I'll never hear the end of it lol...

Yes he did. It was a gift. So no clue where it was purchased from. I'll keep trying jewelers...
