To know when you want to enlarge a ring…

Do you want to adjust the size of a ring or bangle that is too small? You must therefore deal with a jeweler. First of all, he will have to know precisely the desired size in order to know how many points he must enlarge! Most jewelry stores have the tools to take your finger measurements.
The jeweler will use a triboulet in particular to "stretch" the ring and, if the latter must be enlarged by several points, an addition of metal will then be necessary.
To do this, the professional will cut the ring using a "bucfil", then incorporate a suitable piece of material (gold, silver, etc.) into the cut.
In certain more complex cases (for example when a ring is set with several stones, as is the case with eternity/semi-eternity bands, or when it has a continuous pattern, engravings or overlapping bands), this may require more work and skill.
It may even be necessary to have to redo the entire body of the ring; your jeweler will be able to inform you of this and offer you an estimate before proceeding.
It may also happen that certain situations require the addition of a hinge, small gold balls inside or other modification, for example in cases of arthritis or when the joints are too bulky compared to the base. fingers. Your jeweler will then be able to inform you of all the possible solutions according to your needs.
The cost of adjusting the size of a ring or bangle will vary according to different criteria; including the type of metal (silver, 10K gold, 14K gold, etc.), the model or design, the presence or absence of stones and the way these are set, etc.…
