Pictures of this Tacori setting?

Any ideas on my resizing conundrum? I learned about the little beads they can put in to snug up the ring a bit, do those work well? I''d probably rather do that than having the ring physically altered, just in case her fingers get bigger. Are those easily removed?

Jonah,
I do not know much about resizing so I can''t help you there. But I have to tell you that her ring is gorgeous!! And it looks much, much, much bigger than a .45 (is that what you wrote in an earlier post?)
Great job! She''s a lucky girl!

Thank you so much 
It is, indeed, .45ct. To be fair, she has pretty small hands and the band is a pretty thin 2mm. It does look bigger than I expected though, which was a welcome surprise. All I know is she''s a happy girl, and that makes me a happy man. Aside from the fact that she''s already up to her ears in wedding magazines, lol.

Boy, this forum moves FAST.
I''m not trying to be a pest, I just don''t know what I should do to make this ring fit her a little better. I''m afraid of getting it physically resized as I have the worst luck with things just going wrong. That and she would be sad if the little tacori stamp got messed up, haha.
Just looking for suggestions, help (mental or otherwise), or just reassurance that resizing is no big deal. I''ve never really had to do it before.
Thanks again everyone

The problem is, I bought the ring from a Jeweler out of state. I''m not sure if it would be best to take it to a Tacori certified jeweler (an hour away) or just take it to a local jeweler. Or is a chain a good idea? I assumed that a chain would be the last choice...but then I also don''t really know squat about this, haha.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Jonah, I''m surprised no one else has chimed in, so I will.
I have a Tacori engagement ring setting that had to be sized down. We bought the setting at Bailey Banks and Biddle here in Dallas, and it''s one of their larger stores with repair staffers onsite.
BB&B handled the resizing themselves rather than sending the ring to Tacori in California.
HOWEVER - I recommend calling a Tacori-certified jeweler directly and asking THEM. Getting Tacori, or one of their authorized representatives, involved protects your rights under Tacori''s lifetime warranty. I would *not*, under any circumstances, take it to a chain store.
I don''t have sizing beads in my ring, but I''ve definitely been considering it. When they''re done properly, they supposedly aren''t felt by the wearer. Someone else can correct me if I''m wrong, but I believe the beads are designed to keep the ring from spinning and slipping, rather than solving a sizing problem. The beads are pretty small.
From what I understand, though, sizing the kind of band your fiancee has is not that difficult.
And re: the Tacori logo, mine is stamped into the side, not the bottom, so resizing shouldn''t affect that.

Thank you very much for the info. I found a BB&B about 45 minutes from me, I''ll call them and see what they say.
The tacori stamp is on the side and the other side has that little crescent. I assume they go between those 2 to size it.
The funny thing is that her fingers fluctuate a lot in weather. She came in from the cold yesterday and the ring was seriously loose, but then later that night it was much more snug. I just need to take her up there and get her sized...at room temperature I guess, lol.
Other than the size though, I couldn''t be happier with Tacori. After I bought it I read all kinds of horror stories about them, but they seem to have done really good work and my fiance LOVES the ring.

It''s lovely, and you are so sweet for putting so much effort forth for her. I''m glad she said yes for you!
And I ditto the previous poster that mentioned calling Tacori - it''s better safe than sorry. She may be without her ring for a week, but it''s worth it to keep from voiding Tacori''s lifetime warranty.
