Ring sizes

How to easily measure your ring size yourself

Method 1: With an existing ring (most accurate)

1. Choose a ring that fits well on the correct finger.
2. Measure the inner diameter of the ring with a ruler or caliper.
3. Compare the measured diameter with the table above. If the inner diameter is, for example, 17 mm, then you have ring size 17.

Method 2: With a string or paper strip

1. Wrap a thin string or strip of paper around your finger.
2. Mark where the ends meet.
3. Measure the length in millimeters. This is the finger circumference.
4. Find the corresponding circumference in the table. A circumference of 53 mm, for example, corresponds to ring size 17.

Useful tips

• Measure your fingers at the end of the day; they usually have their normal size then.
• Do not measure when your hands are very cold, as your fingers may be narrower then.
• Are you in doubt between two sizes? Then usually choose the larger size, especially for wider rings.
• Consider the knuckle: the ring should be able to slide over it smoothly, but then sit comfortably on the finger.
