One of the great advantages of fine jewellery is its flexibility for resizing and modifications. Whether your ring feels too snug, too loose, or you want to make a design adjustment, there are plenty of options to ensure your piece fits perfectly and reflects your style. Here’s everything you need to know about resizing and modifying rings after purchase.
Resizing: Getting the Perfect Fit
Over time, your ring size may change due to factors like temperature, pregnancy, or general lifestyle changes. The good news is that resizing is a straightforward process for most rings.
At Laher, we offer free resizes on all purchases with no limitations on the number of resizes. Whether your ring needs a slight adjustment or a significant size change, you can count on us to make it right.
-
How Resizing Works: For rings that need to be made smaller, jewellers carefully remove a small section of the band, then rejoin and polish it to look seamless. To make a ring larger, the band may be stretched or additional metal added.
-
Limitations: Resizing is most effective for rings with simple metal bands. Rings with intricate details, pave settings, or eternity bands (where stones encircle the band entirely) may have limitations due to their design. In such cases, we will discuss alternative solutions with you.
Modifications: Updating Your Design
Beyond resizing, you might consider modifying your ring to better suit your evolving taste or lifestyle. Common modifications include:
-
Changing the Metal: If you originally chose white gold but now prefer yellow gold or platinum, we can remake the band in your desired metal while preserving the original design.
-
Upgrading the Centre Stone: Many couples choose to upgrade their gemstone over time, whether it’s increasing carat size or selecting a different stone altogether.
-
Adding or Changing Details: Additional diamonds, engraving, or altering the ring’s setting can refresh your piece without starting from scratch.
