Platinum Plated Ring Resizing & Repair: Is It Possible?


Question
I have fallen in love with a ring that is platinum plated sterling silver with a popular 'diamond simulant'(!!!)3ct stone... It only comes in a size 6...I am a size 5- is it possible to resize this ring?

Answer
HI GAYLE,

IT IS POSSIBLE TO SIZE THIS RING BUT IT MAY COST MORE TO SIZE THAN THE RING ITSELF. IT MAY BE JUST AS CHEAP TO RE-CAST THE RING AS A NEW RING AND GO FROM THERE. A GOOD JEWELER CAN DO THIS BUT IT WILL COST. YOU MIGHT TRY TO FIND THE MANUFACTURER AND SEE IF IT CAN BE MADE IN A SIZE 5. GOOD LUCK.
