Provided this does not affect the diamonds, polishing the inner surface can remove metal, making the fit roomier.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Unsetting and adding a section<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This technique is not suitable for channel set full eternity rings but might work in some instances. Each diamond is unset from the full eternity ring. Another section is then added to the ring. This could be plain, or diamond set. The original diamonds are then re-set into the ring. Leaving the diamonds intact during such work would risk breakage of the diamonds.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6277\" src=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Old-Cut-Diamond-1.jpg\" alt=\"Full eternity ring made bigger - diamonds were unset with a new section added to increase the finger size\" width=\"850\" height=\"628\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Old-Cut-Diamond-1.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.serendipitydiamonds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Old-Cut-Diamond-1-300x221.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>This is an example of a design where a section could be added after first <\/em>unsetting<em> the original diamonds.
