Ring Size Guide: How to measure the ring size at home
Using an existing ring: If you or the recipient already have a ring that fits perfectly on the finger where you want to wear your new ring, you have the ideal starting point. This is a simple and effective method to find the exact ring size.
Surprise sizing through friends or family: If the ring is intended as a surprise gift, you can discreetly ask close friends or family members who know the recipient well for help. They can either subtly determine the recipient's ring size or borrow a fitting ring. This ensures that the surprise will be successful and the ring will fit perfectly.
String method:
-
Wrap a piece of string around the finger.
-
Mark the point where the string overlaps.
-
Measure the length of the string with a ruler in millimeters.
-
Compare the result to a ring size chart to determine the correct ring size.
Ring sizer: Order our ring sizer online to measure your ring size conveniently and accurately at home. The ring sizer is a practical tool that helps you find the perfect fit for your ring.
Consider temperature: Finger sizes can fluctuate depending on temperature. For the most accurate ring size, it is best to measure at normal room temperature. Avoid measuring when your fingers are particularly cold or warm, as this may skew the results.
How to use a ring sizer:
-
Slide the strap onto your finger: Gently slide the ring sizer over the finger you want to measure. Start at the base of the finger where the ring will later sit. Make sure the strap is straight and not twisted.
-
Adjust the strap: Slowly tighten the strap around your finger by gently pulling both ends. The strap should fit snugly, but not too tight or uncomfortable. A proper fit ensures that the ring will later sit comfortably and securely.
-
Find the right fit: When the strap fits snugly and comfortably around your finger, note the measurement that aligns with the end of the strap. This measurement represents the circumference of your finger and is crucial for determining your ring size.
-
Determine the ring size: The correct ring size is indicated on the ring sizer in European sizes. You can provide this size when ordering your ring. Additionally, you can compare your measurement with our ring size chart to be absolutely sure.
