I also have a solitare pearl ring; I love it so much, but it is Highly susceptible to getting bumped and scratched so I try not to wear it everyday. During the first week that I wore it out, the pearl also came off the post (Thank goodness I found it too, as it has a very unique Aqua color that I fell in love with at first sight!).

I remounted it, but before that I had our designers file notches or grooves in the mounting post so that there was a more "gritty" surface for the pearl to adhere to. I haven't had any problems since then!

When you take the pearl and mounting back to your jeweler, ask them if they couldn't do something similar (literally, it will take him 5min or less) for added security in the future.
