Why is it important to know your size?
A ring that is too tight can cause discomfort and marks on the skin. One that is too loose risks slipping off (and disappearing).
Having the right measurement ensures:
✔️ Comfort in daily wear
✔️ Durability and less wear
✔️ Enhancement of the design and the jewel itself

If you have sensitive skin, it is worth also checking the materials and finishes before choosing. Read: jewelry for sensitive skin.
How to measure your finger size (at home)
Don’t have a ring sizer? No problem. Here are two simple ways to find your size with objects you already have at home:
Method 1 - With a thread
- Wrap a thin thread around the base of your finger
- Mark where the thread crosses
- Measure the length with a ruler
- Compare the measurement in millimeters with our conversion chart
Tip: measure at the end of the day, when fingers are slightly more swollen.
Method 2 - With one of your rings
- Choose a ring that fits well on the finger where you want to wear the new one
- Measure the inner diameter with a ruler (in millimeters)
- Check in our chart the corresponding size

❗️Common mistakes to avoid
- Measuring with cold fingers (they may be thinner than usual)
- Using tape or paper that is too wide (it can distort the measurement)
- Ignoring the width of the piece itself: the wider the ring, the tighter it will feel
