How to measure your finger for a ring

How to measure your ring finger (even without a sizer)

Buying a ring online can be a magical experience, especially when it's a unique, handcrafted piece designed just for you. But there's always one question that comes naturally before finalizing your order: "What size do I wear?"
If you don't have a ring sizer at home, don't worry: there are several simple and reliable methods to find your size in just a few minutes.

📏 Method 1: String or paper strip

You will need:

– A thin thread, string, or strip of paper (not elastic)

– A ruler

– A pen

How to do:

  1. Gently wrap the thread or strip around the base of your finger (neither too tight nor too loose).
  2. Mark the point where the paper or thread overlaps.
  3. Measure the length from the starting point to the mark with the ruler.
  4. Compare the measurement in millimeters with a ring size chart (you can easily find one online or ask us).

Example: a circumference of 54 mm corresponds to an Italian size 14.

💍 Method 2: Compare to a ring you already own If you already have a ring that fits your desired finger, you can use that as a guide.

How to do:

  1. Place it on a ruler or on a printout with ring guide circles (downloadable online).
  2. Measure the inside diameter in millimeters (not the outside!).
  3. Compare the diameter with a conversion table to find the corresponding measurement.
    For example, an internal diameter of 17.2 mm corresponds to an Italian size 14.

✨ Some helpful tips:

  • Measure your finger at the end of the day, when it is slightly more swollen (avoid doing this if your hands are cold).
  • If you're unsure between two sizes, choose the larger one, especially for wide rings.
  • Every finger is different: don't use another finger's size thinking it's the same.
  • For surprise gifts: Try taking the person's ring and using the inside diameter method!
