I recently purchased a preloved eternity band, hoping it would fit. Well, the ring is a bit too snug, and unfortunately I can't return it. So my question is has anyone had the inside of their eternity band shaved down to allow for a 1/4 to 1/2 size larger? If so, who did you get to do this? I have contacted a couple of jewelers but they won't do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated! :wavey:
 
I don't have an eternity band but from what I read, the sizing is sort of, well, eternity for eternity bands... Maybe you can sell it and get the right size?

I read that it's possible for some rings on this thread: [URL='https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/shaving-down-eternity-band-that-1-4-size-ramifications.24120/']https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/shaving-down-eternity-band-that-1-4-size-ramifications.24120/[/URL]

Can you post a picture of your band to see if others will weigh in?

The only pics I have are the vendor ones.

Hi taylorbug!

It is possible to shave down or stretch the ring about a 1/4 size up, I would keep looking for a goldsmith who feels confident in doing it. I have seen it done to a similar style setting with no complications.
 
As an alternative, you could see if someone would replace one of the diamonds (or even one of the spacers?) with a small sizing bar.
