Your favorite ring doesn't fit!Don't
worry;It is possible to resize the ring.There are several reasons to
resize a ring.A person may want to resize the ring so they can wear it
on the other finger, or may need to resize the ring due to weight gain
or loss.Ring sizing is actually one of the most common jewelry
restorations.However, it's also important to know what can go wrong with
the size of the ring to prevent damage to one of your precious jewels.
Resizing To a Smaller Size
This process is simple, compared to when a ring is resized to a larger size. A portion of the band is cut, ring is then soldered back together, and finally cleaned and polished. However, when the shank of the ring is too thin or thick, it makes the resizing process more difficult for the jeweler. The area where the ring was cut and soldered also becomes weaker and can potentially break in the future.

Resizing To a Larger Size
There are two ways to resize your ring to a larger size. Depending on how much you want it to be resized, a ring can be stretched or reworked. Stretching is a method used if you need to resize your ring not more than half size larger. For ring sizing larger than that, a total rework on the ring would be necessary. Keep in mind, complication can occur when the ring has a more intricate design (has stones and diamonds), resizing it to a larger size may be a problem as it can alter the beauty of the ring or damage the stones/diamonds.
Unable to Resize
Unfortunately, there are certain rings that cannot resized or reworked. Eternity rings, for example, cannot be resized due to diamonds or stones going all the way around the band. Any heat or cutting can damage damage or distort the beauty of the ring. Metals like titanium or stainless steel rings cannot be resized due to the material properties.
When buying an expensive ring, it is important to consult your jeweler to ensure that the metal type and design will allow the ring to be resized in the future.Most fashion jewelry rings have a certain amount of leeway, of course, if our fashion jewelry is too small or too big, we will accept a return.As a general rule, make sure the ring is comfortable to wear and avoid potential trouble with future ring sizing.
