\nApply a small amount of soap, hand cream, or oil between your finger and the ring to reduce friction. Gently twist the ring back and forth while slowly easing it off your finger. Avoid pulling forcefully, as this can make swelling worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nThis technique involves threading a piece of string or thin ribbon under the ring, then wrapping it snugly around your finger toward the fingertip. As you carefully unwind the string, the ring gradually slides over the compressed finger and can be removed more easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/fujimori.tokyo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_4388-1-scaled.jpg\")

While fire departments can cut rings in emergencies, the tools they use are designed for speed rather than precision. As a result, the cut edges are often rough, making it much more difficult to restore the ring to its original condition afterward.\n
\nAt our workshop, every ring is carefully cut by a skilled craftsman with repair and restoration in mind. By creating a clean, precise cut, we minimize damage to your treasured ring and make it possible to restore it beautifully after the emergency has been resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/fujimori.tokyo\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/IMG_4393.jpg\")
