Question Moon Ring
QUESTION: Would it be possible to apply enamel to this ring? I would like it to have a dark blue background. And who would I take it to to have it done? Can any jeweler do it? Please LMK. Thanks so much!
ANSWER: Hi,
It is a nice ring, yes you can add enamel to it at any time.
If you are not a jeweler then you can take it to a local jeweler but make sure to ask if they have some experience in enamel work, there is lots of enameling processes available in the market and will not be that hard at all.
Hope it helps.

enameled ring
QUESTION: Thank you for the quick reply. I took the ring to a jeweler and the salesman said he would send it to their repair shop and get an estimate for me. Their on-site repair person said they have two different methods of applying enamel- a cold process and a heated one that would make the enamel shine like glass. What do you think I should expect to pay for either of these applications? Just a ballpark figure so I have some idea, I don't want to be ignorantly overcharged. Thank you for your help. I am very excited and hoping it turns out sort of like this one I saw on eBay. Regards, Denise
AnswerHello Denise,
I would consider doing the heated one that would make the enamel shine like glass, I would also take the ring to more than just one jeweler and make sure that they do this in the premises because if they send it out it means they are the middle person and they have to profit too.
I would suggest to look in the yellow pages for jewelers trade shops, If you tell me where are you located I might know someone close to you.
I can't give you an idea because everybody has set up the charges to their convenience but, I will say it should be under $100.
Hope it helps,
Orlando
