Gold Plated Vermeil Adjustable Ring

Description

Gold Plated Vermeil Adjustable Ring with bezel setting and the option to add a kit. Made of solid 925 sterling silver plated with 1 micron of 24ct gold, known as gold vermeil with smooth round bezel suitable for filling with resin, known as direct pour.

It is sometimes possible to use a glued-in cabochon or stone or a rubover method but I don’t recommend it for this ring – Nikki

Does not include ashes as shown in the pictures. These rings can be made using a silicone mould to create a cabochon stone which can be set in place by rubbing over the silver edge. We recommend you create at least two cabochon stones for your client and send a proof photo to increase client satisfaction.

Perfect for use with our 6mm round cabochon mould.

Ring Setting Sizes

These rings are adjustable so they suit a wide range of sizes, from around a UK size L to a UK size T although it depends on the wearer. Please note, adjusting the size too much or too hard can make the silver brittle. If you accidentally break the setting please get in touch as we may be able to replace it free of charge! We recommend annealing before adjusting, if possible. We are happy to pre-size the ring small, medium, large etc just let us know in the comments.

Comfort Fit for Arthritis/Swollen Joints

Adjustable fit bands like this ring are ideal for clients with arthritis and swollen joints etc. If you’d like us to press the ring into a slight oval shape for clients with arthritis/swollen knuckles please let us know in the comments. We recommend sizing the client’s finger and not the joint, the oval shape will help them get the ring on and because it can then be more true-to-size, it’s less likely to slip.

Vermeil – Gold Plated Solid 925 Sterling Silver

The silver in these rings is solid 925 sterling silver, which is 100% recycled. Please see our blog on Types of Solid Silver which explains the care instructions for the silver and the metal content. The silver is plated with 1 micron of 24ct gold, please see Types of Gold for more info.

Treat With Care
Please note, as this ring is adjustable it can get caught and warped out of shape. This is not an ideal ring for a client prone to knocking it. We recommend you make sure that clients are aware this ring needs to be treated carefully. Should the ring snap we are more than happy to do a free repair for your client, please contact us to arrange. If your client wants a sturdier ring with a larger soldered surface area we recommend the 10x8mm Wide Band Teardrop Ring Setting or the Hannah Ring. More designs coming soon!
