FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Ring sizing All rings advertised in my online shop are already sized. If you want a particular size, I can size your chosen item before posting to you. All rings are made using the UK Wheatsheaf measurement of the full size using the letters of the alphabet (A to Z) and half sizes, i.e. A+ half; B+ half etc with a ring stick. I can make rings to any size to meet other international ring sizing systems. It is suggested you find out the type and size of ring at any reputable jeweller, who will provide this service free of charge. Alternatively, if the ring you want or are commissioning is to replace a known ring worn by the lucky customer, you could send the ring to Keilson Foote Jewellery and we can make a ring to the same size. Rings, which are not set with stones can be sized at a nominal charge, depending on the number of sizes (up or down) and the fineness of the metal from which the ring is made. Bangle sizing Bangles can be made to any diameter, thickness and width. The way to find the minimum diameter to fit the person is to get them to put their fingers together and stretch them out to form a cone. Using a tape measure, find the circumference around the knuckles of the thumb, forefinger and little finger, so as to just fit over comfortably. This will be the inside diameter. Please see pictures below as a sizing guide or, if you prefer, you can always send an existing bangle to Keilson Foote Jewellery as a pattern. Sizing other pieces Graduated lengths of chain can be made from varying weights of chain or different types of precious metal (i.e. yellow, white and red gold) to maximise the effect. Necklaces, neck chains or other bodily adornments (i.e. backlace – a necklace which is predominantly worn down a wearer's back (i.e. for low-cut backed top or dress) or waistlace – a chain made to be worn around the waist) can be made to any length. Please send a message via the Contact Page to discuss your detailed requirements the idea you would like to take from concept to design through to manufacture.

I am happy to provide you advice and options for the finished design, such as polished, hammered, brushed or reticulated, or a combination of these elements, so you are able to make the final decision and will provide a free no obligation quote. Wedding rings are very special pieces of jewellery and are given for many reasons, usually to reflect the love and affection between two people. The designs and combinations are only limited to one’s imagination. The choice of metal (or mixed metals) including laser designs and sentiments; reworking of family heirloom or inherited precious metal object could be a consideration we can discuss. Matching or individual designs are offered to meet your very important wedding day ceremony. Laser engraving of your jewellery (either supplied by you or made by me) can include text as a unique sentiment; picture of a special location or view or of the handprint or footprint of a loved one reflecting a very special moment in your life. All commissions are accepted using your chosen design and, where necessary, I will have hallmarked at the London Assay Office prior to delivery. All costs and agreed timeframes will be clearly described to you in writing and I will start the commission upon receipt of a deposit.
