***PAGING TACORI E-RING!!!***

[Irishgrrrl]

Tacori, I just looked up the thread on your Tessa ring (which is BEAUTIFUL, by the way), and I have a question for you. DH is getting me a Bev K band (this one) for Christmas. We just ordered it from Pearlman''s this afternoon, and Pat said she was going to put the order in today. BUT, this was before I saw your Tessa ring''s thread, and saw that you had Bev K put a sizing bar in your ring!!! I didn''t know they could do that, and now the order has already been placed at Bev K!!!

Do you think it''s too late? Pearlman''s is open from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. tomorrow, and I know Pat is working, so if I call her first thing tomorrow, do you think she could get Bev K to modify the order? I would need them to reduce the size by two sizes and insert a sizing bar. Help!!!

Oh, I feel so important to get a page. Haha! I would call (and maybe e-mail right now so pat gets it first thing) for sure if you want a sizing bar. I doubt it will be a problem at all but might delay you getting your beautiful ring (lucky girl!) I love the look of eternity rings but think they are unpractical. My sizing bar is *very* small and allows the ring to be sized two up/two down. The BK rep I spoke to (before I even contacted Pearlman''s) was SO nice. She said every ring can be customized (replace sapphires for diamonds, different color gold, etc) so I really do believe they want their customers to be happy. You will not be disappointed. I am very pleased with BK''s quality. Can''t wait to see you new ring!

I''m not Tacori, but I just placed an order with Pearlman''s for a BK band today too, and from my understanding Pearlman''s will send the order to BK and it takes BK a few days to confirm the order. I don''t think it''s too late to add a sizing bar. Definitely call to ask tomorrow! Can''t wait to see your band! We should get our bands around the same time.

Oh, Tacori, you ARE important!!!

And thank you so much for the reply! I didn''t even think to ask if a sizing band would be possible, until I happened across your Tessa ring''s thread tonight. DUH! Why didn''t I think of that?!?! LOL!

I don''t have Pat''s e-mail address, and I''m afraid that she won''t get the e-mail if I just send it through the general Pearlman''s e-mail address, so I think I''ll call her first thing tomorrow. Just so this whole dilemma makes a little more sense, here''s what I did: I ordered the ring in a size 9 1/2 (yes, you read that right!) because that''s the size of my biggest finger (my right thumb). I wanted the option of wearing the band on ANY finger so I can switch it up sometimes. I knew I wouldn''t be able to get it sized at all since it''s an eternity band, so I ordered it big enough to fit my biggest finger and planned on using sizing beads if I wanted to wear it on a smaller finger. (I really didn''t think a sizing bar was an option! LOL!) So, I''m planning to start by wearing it on my right ring finger, which is about a 7 1/2. My right ring finger won''t be its forever home though, because my current e-ring is probably going to live there after I get my upgrade in a few years!

Thanks again for the info!!! You''re a life saver!!!

OK, spill it, girl! Which one did you order?!?!

You are funny! My Tessa ring is exactly what I wanted in a push present so I did so much research. When I found out about BK I contacted them about the sizing bar b/c that was one of my must haves and everything else about it was perfect. Since the ring *IS* for Tessa I wanted to make sure she could size it to fit her (whatever size that may be). Mine is just a straight across bar. I am not sure if they could mimic the design or how they would do it. Be sure to ask Pat. I worked with Julian so I do not have her info. Like snlee said I am SURE you have time to change it. A ring two sizes too big would probably be uncomfortable anyways. Wouldn''t it stick out a lot?

Ya know, I was kinda worried about that myself! I really wasn''t sure how comfortable the sizing beads would be, or how far they would make the ring stick out on the palm side of my hand. But I read some threads about sizing beads here on PS, and it seems like most people who have them don''t mind them once they get used to them. BUT, I would definitely rather have a sizing bar! That seems like it would be so much easier and more comfortable! Also, with the design of the band being so detailed (milgraining, etc.), I would be worried that the part on the palm side of my hand would take a beating, and I think a sizing bar might help with that a little bit. I don''t anticipate ever needing to size the ring down by very much (if at all), but I may need to size it up substantially if I decide to switch it to a different finger. I wonder if Bev K would be able to make the sizing bar pretty narrow, since I probably won''t need to make it any more narrow in the future (if that makes any sense)?

I would just talk to Pat tomorrow. I''m sure she can help you come up with a solution.

My DH got me this band to celebrate the birth of our son. I can''t wait to get it!

[snlee]

Well, I called Pat today, and she said she would contact Bev K on Monday to change the order. We're getting a size 7 1/2 (instead of the 9 1/2) which will fit my right ring finger. I asked her about putting a sizing bar in the ring, and she said she'll talk to Bev K about that too and see if that can be done. Also, Pat mentioned that she recently had a customer who needed to get a Carl Blackburn eternity band resized (which is similar to many of the Bev K ones). Pat found a company who was able to resize that customer's eternity band!!! She said it looks perfect and you can't even tell it was resized. I had no idea that could be done!!!
