Commonly asked Questions
-HOW DO I GET MY FINGER SIZE?................Answer - A correct finger size is measured at a jeweller with a set of steel rings. Your finger size is best done with a thin band, this gives me your finger size, from there I adjust the 'ring' size according to how wide the ring you have ordered, is. Try the sizing rings on and off yourself and take note of the letter or number, don't let someone else do it for you. Measure at the widest point of your finger. Whatever feels comfortable to you. It will either be a letter or number or both. Do not measure with a piece of string, or by holding a ring over an image of a circle, or on a ruler. If you receive your rings and they do not fit there will be an addition charge to resize.
-HOW LONG WILL MY ORDER TAKE.........Answer - 4 to 6 weeks for me to make plus shipping time. Australian shipping is approx 2 days, international shipping is aprox 2 weeks.
-DO YOU HAVE A STORE?...............Answer - A traditional jewellery store? - No, because I don't carry any stock, BUT I do have a nice office and workshop in Northgate Brisbane, where we can meet and discuss your custom design. By appointment only.
-WHERE ARE YOU BASED?............Answer - I'm in Brisbane Australia, on the northside in the suburb of Northgate.
-CAN MY RING BE SIZED IF IT DOESN'T FIT?........Answer - Most of the ladies rings have a small blank area in the back for future resizing to be very easy, so yes. The wedding bands that have patterns all the way around them, can be resized yes. All my rings are carated gold so resizing can be done at any time, BUT when I resize you will see an interruption of the pattern, whether with a blank area of gold or where the solder join is. So yes they can be sized but you will see where I have done the resize. This also applies to repairing, any fixing that needs doing can be done to your Nesian rings.
