I am posting on behalf of a friend of mine who recently purchased an amazing ring from Grace (originally commissioned by Siegleson's in NYC). The ring features a gorgeous 4.5. ct antique emerald cut set in rose quartz. Unfortunately the ring is about 1/2 to 1 full size too small. We're wondering if there is any chance some of the quartz could be ground down to make it larger? So far we haven't had much luck getting any answers. Would appreciate any input or direction! Thanks!

I know DK does stone recuts, and also would ask Gary at FinewaterGems.com. He once referred me to Boyd Fox at FoxHopJewelry.com for a really challenging rough cut.

Thanks so much. I'll follow up with them after the holidays!
 
I’ve seen Gary Roe talk about a gem cutter he works with, so might be worth checking with him too, if you need a further resource.
