Resizing Information

All of our ready-to-ship rings are an unmodified standard US 7.

Please note that we can only adjust original, unmodified rings within a range of 2 sizes. This limitation is in place to maintain the structural integrity, design, and overall quality of the ring. Making more drastic size changes can potentially compromise these factors. While we'd love to accommodate all size requests, we want to ensure that the final product remains as beautiful and durable as intended.

For instance, If you ordered a size 7, we can resize down to a 5, or up to a 9.

Should you require a ring size that falls outside the range we can accommodate for our available ready-to-ship pieces, we invite you to explore the possibility of a custom ring design with us. With a custom design, we have the flexibility to craft a ring in any size that suits your preferences.

We suggest confirming your ring size first to avoid the need for additional resizes, as each adjustment can affect the integrity of your piece. Visiting a local jeweler is the most economical way to ensure your ring size, or you can order one of our ring sizers here. If you are unsure of the wearer's size, we highly suggest ordering the unmodified size 7 first, and then send it back to us for the resize.

Please note that resized in-stock rings are ineligible for return or exchange.

Unauthorized repairs/ring resizing invalidates Lavender Creek Gems' warranty.

Shipping & Processing Information

Processing for all ready-to-ship items takes 1-2 business days before they are shipped.

If resizing is required, extra time will be needed before your item is prepared for shipping. Our resizing turnaround time is currently 2 weeks.

We ship Mondays through Thursdays via UPS Overnight Air to prevent shipments from lingering in courier warehouses over the weekend.

Please be sure to check these processing times before placing your order, especially if you have a deadline. Keep in mind that delays can occur with mail couriers, so it's advisable to be prepared for any potential hiccups.

    About Natural Sapphire

    • Hardness

      When it comes to using gemstones in jewelry, few can match the durability and toughness of sapphire. With a rating of 9 on the Mohs scale, sapphire is just one step below diamond, the hardest mineral known to man. Its exceptional hardness ensures that it can withstand everyday wear and tear without getting scratched or damaged. That's why sapphire is a popular choice for engagement rings and other types of jewelry that are worn daily.

      • The Mohs scale is a measurement system used to assess and compare the hardness of minerals. Developed by Friedrich Mohs in 1812, it assigns a ranking from 1 to 10 to minerals based on their ability to scratch or be scratched by other minerals. This scale provides a simple and practical way to understand the relative hardness of different minerals, with 1 being the softest (e.g., talc) and 10 the hardest (e.g., diamond).

      Origin, Stability, & Treatments

      Origin: Sapphires are mined in several countries, with notable sources including Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Australia, Madagascar, and Montana, USA.

      Stability: Sapphires maintain their stability even when worn under regular conditions, making them highly resistant to the detrimental impacts of heat, light, and common chemicals.

      Treatments:
      Heat treatment is the most widely used and accepted treatment for sapphires. It involves heating the sapphire to high temperatures to improve its color and clarity. This process can lighten or darken the stone's color and remove or reduce visible inclusions. It's important to note that the majority of sapphires in the market have undergone heat treatment. Heat-treated sapphire is very durable.

      Irradiation is a treatment method that involves exposing the sapphire to controlled radiation to alter its color. This treatment can enhance the intensity of blue and green colors in sapphires.

      Lattice diffusion is a treatment that introduces certain elements, like beryllium or titanium, into the sapphire's crystal structure to alter its color. This method can create or enhance a range of colors, including orange and yellow.

      Beryllium diffusion specifically involves the introduction of beryllium into the sapphire to achieve a variety of colors.

      Filling: Some sapphires may have surface-reaching fractures or cavities that are filled with a colorless substance to improve clarity and appearance. These filled sapphires should be handled with care, as exposure to extreme heat or chemicals can damage the filling material.

      We disclose all treatments on our stones. Our sapphires are either heated or unheated, which is disclosed when purchasing. All other treatments are not as common, and we do not deal in those treated stones.
