Can Any Ring Be Resized?
No, depending on the design and setting, some rings cannot be resized. Whilst other rings can be safely resized up or down, by one to four sizes.
Are There Limitations To Resizing Rings?
Yes, it is important to appreciate that rings are made to fit their current size. When a request is made to significantly reduce the current size, it can result in the band developing an oval shape. Equally, increasing the size beyond a certain point, can alter the curvature of the band. Such modifications can potentially compromise the stability of settings, that hold gemstones securely in place.
As a result, there are limitations on how much a ring can be resized without compromising its structural integrity. If a requested size change impedes the durability of the ring, alternative solutions such as incorporating a half shank or soldered beads, if appropriate can be suggested.
Remember there is only about a 1mm difference between each whole ring size. For more information on what to consider when finding your size, read our blog: "The Factors Affecting Ring Size”.
Jewellery Care Precautions:
Avoid direct contact with: perfume, lotions, skincare, hairspray / other chemicals. Remove, your jewellery: when showering, swimming (as both chlorine and saltwater will react with metals), washing your hands / using hand sanitisers, before going to bed or when participating in physical activities (going to the gym, exercising, gardening, housework etc….).
Beware, metals may tarnish over time due to oxygen contact and natural body oils. Prevent items from being exposed to moisture and direct sunlight, for long periods. Store jewellery in a dry place away from humidity, in a pouch/jewellery box and keep each piece separated from each other. Care, for your jewellery by cleaning with a soft dry cloth.
Rose Gold:
Rose gold is not an element and does not occur naturally in a pure form. Pure yellow gold is mixed with alloys of copper and sometimes silver to produce, a reddish pink coloured alloy, known as rose gold. The colour and depth of rose gold will vary, depending on the ratio of yellow gold to copper. The lower the carat of yellow gold, the higher the copper content, the deeper the colour. The colour of 9ct rose gold will be a deeper reddish-pink, 14ct rose gold will have a subtle rosy pink colour and 18ct rose gold, will show a soft champagne pink colour with a yellow undertone.
Over time and especially in humid conditions, the copper alloy naturally oxidises with the air, causing rose gold jewellery to develop a deeper reddish patina. Seen frequently in antique rose gold jewellery, this patina takes years to develop and adds a desirable vintage essence to the jewellery.
Whilst rose gold jewellery will not discolour easily, it is important to avoid exposure to household chemicals, bleaches, toothpaste, baking soda and other cleaning abrasives. Wearing jewellery in places where perfumes, hairsprays, body lotions have been applied on your body, will increase tarnishing. Wear your jewellery after the products have been applied. To clean your rose gold jewellery, use a mild soap with warm water and dry with a soft cloth. For professional cleaning, our workshop can polish your jewellery back to life.
