Can the Rings Be Resized?
As a general rule, our custom-made rings are not suitable for resizing once they are completed. Because your jewelry includes delicate elements like resin, breastmilk, or ashes, the resizing process poses a significant risk. The intense heat and pressure required by a jeweler to alter a metal band can easily damage or degrade the specialized stone section holding your materials. To preserve the structural integrity and beauty of your keepsake, we require your confirmed size prior to production.
What ring sizing standard does Love Catcher use?
We craft all of our rings using standard US ring sizes. If you are ordering from outside the United States, we recommend utilizing an international ring size conversion chart to find your corresponding US size before finalizing your order.
How can I most accurately find my ring size?
The best and most accurate approach will be to visit a local jeweler. A professional jeweler has the precise tools necessary to measure your finger accurately. We highly recommend this step over using paper charts or string at home, as professional sizing accounts for finger shape and band width.
Why is resizing a completed ring so difficult?
The materials used to preserve breast milk and ashes are sensitive to the extreme heat generated during traditional jewelry soldering. Attempting to stretch or cut the band after the setting is filled could crack, discolor, or entirely ruin the memorial stone.
What should I do if I am between ring sizes?
If your local jeweler determines you are between sizes, we generally recommend opting for the slightly larger size. Fingers naturally swell throughout the day due to temperature changes and physical activity, and a fractionally larger ring ensures daily comfort.
Can I change my ring size after placing an order?
If you realize youโve made a mistake, please contact our support team immediately. We can update your size configuration as long as your piece has not yet entered the physical production stage.
