Finding the correct ring size - All tips and tricks

Besides individual taste, the ring size plays a central role in choosing the right piece of jewelry. With us, you will learn how to easily determine the optimal size for your ring. At the same time, we show you in the international size chart which ring size is right for you.   

Determine your ring size yourself - use suitable tools

You don't need a professional ring size advisor; with suitable tools, you can measure the ring size yourself. This works especially easily with a so-called multisizer ring, also called ring sizer. This construction is basically a tape measure. To measure the ring size, carefully wrap the tape measure around the finger so that it fits loosely. The finger circumference thus measured corresponds to the necessary size you need when buying the gold ring or silver ring. The ring size is usually read at the number displayed in the center of the magnifying glass/loupe of the tape measure. We offer you a practical ring gauge directly in our shop.

Other ways to determine the ring size

Whether a signet ring for men or the elegant, classic men's ring, it doesn't have to be the tape measure to determine the right size. You can also find out with a conventional ruler. It is best used together with an already existing ring that serves as a reference. Especially for a planned gift from the women's or men's jewelry area, this tool is excellent because the finger is not needed. You place the ring on the template or the ruler and determine the appropriate value (inner diameter), which can then be used as the EU ring size when shopping. Read the size from the measured units best on the size chart with the internationally common ring sizes. You will find the chart in the next section!

How-To - Measure ring size:

Do you already own a ring that fits perfectly? 

👉🏻 Measure the inner diameter of your ring with a ruler and multiply the inner diameter by 3.14. The result is your finger circumference and at the same time the EU ring size.

Example:

Inner diameter = 19.1mm.

19.1mm x 3.14 = 60mm (EU ring size "60")

Important tips for correctly measuring ring size

Most important is the choice of the right finger. Always measure the required size on the finger where the ring will be worn. Also note the different values that vary greatly throughout the day. Therefore, we recommend multiple measurements at different times of the day and then determining the average for a particularly meaningful result. In some cases, a conversion of the ring size is necessary. We are happy to assist you with the size chart inserted below and are available for further questions via chat or e-mail. The international ring sizes with the corresponding values can be recognized at a glance with the table. Especially due to different common sizes in several countries, the table is a valuable support in determining the ring size on the way to the purchase of your new favorite ring

5 ways to measure your ring size:

1. Using a ring sizer: A ring sizer is a special tool available in jewelry stores or online. It consists of a set of rings in different sizes that the customer can try on to find the right size. You can also use an existing ring sizer to determine the size of an existing ring.

2. Measurement with a flexible tape measure: A flexible tape measure can also be used to determine the ring size. You wrap the tape measure around the finger for which the ring is intended and read the circumference in millimeters. This circumference can then be compared with a ring size chart to determine the appropriate ring size.

3. DIY measurement methods: There are also some DIY methods to measure ring size. One option is to wrap a thread or strip of paper around the finger and then mark the length. Afterwards, the length can be measured with a ruler and looked up in the ring size chart. Another method is to place an existing ring on a piece of paper and measure the inner diameter with a ruler. This diameter can then also be compared with a ring size chart to find the correct size.

4. Using apps to determine ring size: There are also practical apps like "Ring Sizer & Ruler" or "Ring Sizer by Jason Withers" that can help determine the ring size. These apps use various methods to measure the size of the finger and the existing ring and then output the corresponding ring size.

5. Measurement with a conventional ruler: Alternatively, a conventional ruler can also be used to determine the ring size. For this, an existing ring is placed on the ruler, and the inner diameter of the ring is measured. This diameter is then multiplied by 3.14 to determine the finger circumference and at the same time the EU ring size.
