Resizing down is much easier task to do and less expensive👌.

When a ring is resized down, the jeweler cuts out the extra material from the bottom.

And joins the ends back together.

They are some precautions that are to be considered if we are to preserve the ring⚠.

When we need to resize up, there are two ways:

1. A little extra piece of material added at the bottom.
   This process can resize a ring up and about to 2 sizes bigger.
   You'll have to pay for the extra material and craftsmanship🙌.

2. The band is stretch.
   But stretching it makes the ring thinner and weakens it.
   So this can only do depending on the band.
   Usually it can only go half a size larger.

First and notable, if the ring has ever resized previously, and then it cannot resize again.

Choosing to resize it a second time will compromise the structural integrity of the ring.

It is also not advisable to resize these rings more than two sizes.

This can result in the metal being weak and will lead to the losing shape of the ring.

It is but possible to resize one or two size.
