How to enlarge your ring?
If you have the opportunity to visit the store, Artémi Vasilakis can personally take care of taking the measurements needed. First, the jeweler will start by measure the diameter of the ring as well as that of the desired finger. To find the right size, your professional jeweler will use a ring sizer.
After this step, the jeweler will be able to suggest the most appropriate method depending on the model and the extent of the enlargement to be done. Thus, for small joins she will use a ring mandrel to gently strike the metal of your ring using a mallet specially designed for this purpose. Once the desired size is reached, the goal will then be to restore the original roundness of the band.
For an enlargement of more than one larger size, you will need to modify the body of the ring which, as you can imagine, is more complex.
