Finding the perfect ring isn't just about choosing the right design; it’s also about ensuring the perfect fit. A well-fitted ring should slide smoothly onto your finger and sit comfortably without feeling too tight or too loose. Measuring your ring size accurately is the key to achieving this perfect fit. If you're unsure of your size, we also offer convenient, postable ring sizers in our web shop that you can purchase. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you measure your ring size with confidence.
Why Accurate Ring Sizing Matters
A ring that fits well is crucial for both comfort and safety. Rings that are too tight can cause discomfort and restrict blood flow, while rings that are too loose risk slipping off and getting lost. Accurate ring sizing ensures that your ring feels just right and stays securely on your finger, enhancing both its beauty and practicality.
Methods to Measure Your Ring Size
There are several methods you can use to determine your ring size, from using common household items to purchasing a professional ring sizer. Here’s how you can do it:
Method 1: Using a Strip of Paper or String
1. Gather Your Materials: You’ll need a strip of paper or a piece of string, a ruler, and a pen.
2. Wrap Around Your Finger: Wrap the strip of paper or string around the base of the finger you wish to measure. Make sure it’s snug but not too tight.
3. Mark the Overlap: Using the pen, mark the point where the paper or string overlaps.
4. Measure the Length: Lay the paper or string flat and measure the length from the start to the marked point using a ruler. This measurement is the circumference of your finger.
5. Convert to Ring Size: Use a ring size chart to convert the circumference measurement to your ring size.
Method 2: Measuring a Ring You Already Own
1. Select a Ring: Choose a ring that fits the finger you want to size.
2. Measure the Diameter: Using a ruler or a caliper, measure the inside diameter of the ring from edge to edge.
3. Convert to Ring Size: Use a ring size chart to convert the diameter measurement to your ring size.
Method 3: Using a Ring Multi-sizer
For the most accurate measurement, consider purchasing a ring multi-sizer from our web shop. Here’s how to use it:
1. Order Your Ring Sizer: Visit our web shop and purchase a ring sizer. It’s an easy-to-use tool that provides precise measurements.

3. Double-Check Your Size: For the best results, measure your finger at different times of the day and in different temperatures, as finger size can vary slightly.

Tips for Accurate Measurement
Tips for Accurate Measurement
- Measure at the Right Time: Measure your finger at the end of the day when it’s at its largest. Avoid measuring when your fingers are cold, as they can be smaller.
- Consider Your Knuckle: If your knuckle is larger than the base of your finger, measure both and choose a size in between to ensure the ring can slide over your knuckle but still fit snugly.
- Comfort is Key: Your ring should fit comfortably. It should be snug enough to stay in place but loose enough to slide over your knuckle without too much difficulty.
