How do you keep my tiffany ring from moving and spinning on my finger?

First thing will be to make sure that your tiffany ring is sized right. But in case you've got slim fingers but larger knuckles, obtaining a ring to slide over your knuckle but nonetheless stay put on your finger may be an issue. Unlike bands, rings with center stone or diamonds have a different up-and-down orientation.

A spring insert is normally made of white gold. It is shaped like a horseshoe and fixed to the interior of the shank in the bottom. They are comfy; you likely won't even know it is there — except your fake tiffany victoria ring will stay in the correct spot.

A foldover device works the way a ring guard does, but is a more refined and safer alternative — larger knuckles although particularly for those who have fingers that are slim. The foldover is a metal wire that's shaped in a U-shape and attached on one side of the shank. It could open and shut like a latch. It latch to keep it at the finger and can unlatch to slide a knuckle over. Most people find them comfortable, plus it can reduce the ring size.

There are several DIY repairs which range from small-diameter PVC tubing that flips around the exact bottom of your ring shank, liquid plastic formulas it is possible to dunk your ring shank into (though we advise against this approach; you could permanently harm your ring) or metal ring guards you tighten on the shank with pliers (be careful as you also run the danger of damaging your ring if done wrong). While these might be OK for temporary use or on rings you do not wear very frequently, you should treat your fine jewelry better.

There are typical ways jewelers can solve some these problems that are whirling.

Ring beads are just one means to get a ring to slip on the knuckle but still keep the ring upright. They're usually ideal to altering the ring a half-size or less. A jeweler will make the beads of exactly the same material as the ring, so the beads will probably be produced of 14K gold supposing it's a 14K gold ring. Then the jeweler uses a ball burr to make holes in the shank solders the beads to the ring and polishes so they're smooth. The beads needs to be flattened off rounded a bit for increased comfort. Nonetheless, some people find the beads uncomfortable.
