Hello! Let me check with our goldsmith on this. Back in a flash.

Hello again! Yes, the ring can be sized down. But it's not an ideal situation. Look at the ring image (from the finger view). There is no way to change the shape of the top half of the ring, otherwise it will crack at the area where the cathedral shank starts (10:00 and 2:00 positions). So to reduce the circumference of the ring, the ring has to be sized in 4 spots.
See the picture where circled in red.
Unfortunately, that's the only way to size this ring design down that far. So there will be 4 small sizing marks.
So yes it can be done, but it's not ideal.
The price to do this is $175, which includes rhodium plating the ring. (Sizing will burn off the rhodium plating in those areas.)
Once sized, the ring is a final sale.
Hope this helps!
