Resizing

Ring resizing can be one of the more complicated repairs, and should not be attempted by anyone without adequate skill and experience.

Inexperience can lead to:

• gemstone damage
• gemstone loss
• poorly finished welds
• distorted detail
• marred finishes
• thinned shanks
• weld weakness
• brittleness
• metal buckling
• damage to plated finishes
• improper fit

When you choose to resize your ring at Buchkosky Jewelers, you can expect quality workmanship.

Ring resizing. It's Not So Simple!

The following factors are among those we consider when taking in a ring for resizing:

• How old is the ring?
• Has the ring been resized before?
• What condition is the ring in?
• In what metal is the ring made?
• How has the ring been constructed?
• How far the ring must be resized up or down?
• What is the quality of the workmanship that went into making the ring?
• Are there ring features such as engraving, patterns, or applied finishes?

The answer to these questions will effect the method and approach to resizing.
