Ring Shank Replacement
The bottom portion of a ring receives a significant amount of wear from everyday use. Over time, the metal can become thin, worn or damaged.
When the shank has become too thin, simply adding a small amount of metal may not be the best long-term solution. A shank replacement can restore strength to the ring while maintaining its original character.
