some light to reflect from the bottom of the stone.
Pluses: Unique and original
product designs; most popular selection; stones are nice and
settings have a good weight.

Information about this special mothers
ring...
Important: Stone additions and resizing are no longer
offered for the ALL Platinum Original Mother's Ring.
Ordering the Correct Original Mother's Ring Size- As with all
custom rings, it is important to make sure you order the correct
size when the ring is being made. It is more important to
order the Original Mother's Ring® in the correct finger size because
if resizing is required, 2 bands must be resized (and resoldered if
the pinch-back is ordered). It is more expensive to resize two bands
compared to just one. This ring can be ordered with either a
gap or a pinched back. Being about 6mm wide, this ring with a
gap covers more finger area and tends to fit a bit tighter than the
ring with a "pinch back". The ring with a pinch back tapers so it
makes for a more comfortable fit. See pictures below.
When
ordering the Original Mother's Ring with a gap, use wide finger
measuring gauges that are about 6mm wide to determine correct size.
Original Mother's
Ring® and Bracelet Information- When stone additions are
required for The Original Mother's Ring® (or bracelet), new heads
are usually soldered on the current/existing setting... most
existing stones must be removed first, then reset because they will
not take the heat of a torch. The exceptions are usually Rubies,
Sapphires or Diamonds. Because of this, it is usually more expensive
to have stones added to the Original Mother's Ring or Bracelet
compared to ring styles which are traded in.
Gap vs. Pinch Back-
The Original Mother's Ring® can be ordered with either a gap or with
the bands soldered together (pinch back). If you will be
considering stone additions in the future, you might want to
consider the ring with the gap because it may be less expensive to
add heads/stones to a ring with a gap because it has no fixed
center. The pinch back ring has a fixed center which is
located in the middle of the shank (the part of the ring you see
when you look at the palm of your hand). You cannot add just
one stone to a pinch back because it will make the ring unbalanced.
See below for more information...
The Original
Mother's Ring® with a GAP- shown at the top of both
pictures on the right. If you were to place 1, 2, 3 or more
stones next to the existing stones, the center of the ring (at the
back-shank) would not be effected because the ring with a gap
actually has no fixed center.
The Original Mother's
Ring® with a PINCH BACK- shown at the bottom of both pictures
on the right. This ring has a fixed center which is always located in
the middle of the pinched ring shank. If one stone was
added, it would throw off the center of the ring and it would not be
balanced... if looking at the ring from the sides, one side of the ring
would have a stone closer to the pinched back than the other side.
If two stones were added, it would again be balanced. When
an odd number of stones are added, the ring must have all of the
existing heads repositioned which involves more labor so it is more
expensive to add stones to the pinch back style. |
Note: When the Original Mother's Ring® is ordered in
yellow and white karat gold, there is a very
subtle
difference between the yellow karat gold bands and
the white karat gold heads. This ring is never
made in all yellow karat gold.
