Need to remove engraving on a sterling silver bracelet




I have a new sterling silver bracelet and have the bracelet engraved both front and back. I don't like what my girlfriend has got written on it, so I was wondering if I could remove the engraving somehow because it is a expensive bracelet.

You might not have a girlfriend for very long if you modify it.
I would not touch the back as no one else will see it. Check with a shop that does engraving to see if they can engrave something a bit deeper so as to remove the current engraving.
You could borrow a Moto Tool and polish out the engraving, but I think that it probably would make it ugly.

Any silversmith (or goldsmith) can do that job. Hope it helps and good luck!
