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 ring size yourself - use suitable tools
You don't need a professional ring size advisor; with the right 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, you carefully wrap the tape measure around the finger so that it fits loosely. The finger circumference measured this way 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 also have the option to find this out with a conventional ruler. You best use this together with an already existing ring that serves as a reference point. Especially for a planned gift in the area of women's or men's jewelry, this tool is excellent since 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. It is best to read the size from the measured units 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 the ring size
Wichtig ist vor allem die Wahl des richtigen Fingers. Messe die benötigte Größe immer an dem Finger aus, an welchem der Ring getragen wird. Beachte zudem die unterschiedlichen Werte, die über den Tag verteilt stark variieren. Wir empfehlen deshalb mehrere Messungen zu verschiedenen Tageszeiten und anschließend die Ermittlung des Mittelwerts für ein besonders aussagekräftiges Ergebnis. Unter Umständen ist eine Umrechnung der Ringgröße notwendig. Wir sind dir hierbei gerne über die unten eingefügte Größentabelle behilflich und stehen dir gerne via Chat oder E-Mail für weitere Fragen zur Verfügung. Die internationalen Ringgrößen mit den entsprechenden Werten erkennst du mit der Tabelle auf einen Blick. Gerade durch unterschiedliche gebräuchliche Größen in mehreren Ländern ist die Tabelle bei der Ermittlung der Ringgröße eine wertvolle Unterstützung auf dem Weg zum Kauf deines neuen Lieblingsrings
5 ways to measure the ring size:
-
Use of a ring size gauge: A ring size gauge 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 size gauge to determine the size of an existing ring.
-
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.
-
DIY measurement methods: There are also some DIY methods to measure the ring size. One way is to wrap a string 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.
-
Use of apps for ring size determination: 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.
-
Measurement with a conventional ruler: Alternatively, a conventional ruler can also be used to determine the ring size. To do 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.
