Tightening Finger rings with gemstones

[Guest guest]

Dear Rajesh There is no way to tighten the rings except the way you have suggested i.e. tying a thread around the rings. The other way to reduce the size of the ring is to take them to a jeweller and having him make new rings of the correct size. This is acceptable for the silver ring, but the way gold prices are shooting up, you will incur a sizeable loss both on wastage and making charges. There is also a risk of the emerald getting damaged unless this is done very carefully. I would hence suggest that you wait for some time. Maybe in a year's time these rings woud perfectly fit you.

If you've had the rings for a long time, it can perhaps be the temperatures of your environment that may make fingers expand or smaller at different times of the year. If this is the case, its better not to tighten them in case you will need to make them loose again later. Big jewelry shops don't normally reset rings if you didn't buy the stones from them. Maybe you should try enquiring at smaller shops.Also hope to hear from other dear members who had the

same experience as you. Hopefully they can shed more light.Om Namah Shivaya , "umeshrajesh72" <umeshrajesh72 wrote:>> Sir,> > I have a couple of rings which are set in gold and silver and studded > with a emerald and a pearl respectively.
