Generally, there are two ways you can figure out your ring size, and both are pretty easy. We’ll cover both methods in this article so that purchasing a new ring is simple and stress-free.
Method 1: Measuring Your Finger
- Measure your finger by wrapping a strip of paper or wide thread around it, leaving enough space to slide the ring over your knuckle.
- Mark the place where the paper strip meets and measure the length in millimeters or inches using a ruler. (This is the circumference of your finger.)
- Find your measurement and corresponding size in the chart below.
Method 2: Measuring a Ring That Already Fits
You can measure the diameter of one of your own rings using a ruler.
- Lay the ring on a flat surface
- Place a ruler on top of the ring.
- Measure the ring across (inside diameter) on the widest part of the ring.
- Find your measurement and corresponding size in the chart below.

Tips For Perfect Sizing
When it comes to selecting the perfect ring size, precision is key, as even a few millimeters can make a difference.
If your finger is between sizes, consider the width and style of your ring when deciding whether to size up or down:
- Large statement/cocktail rings – Keep in mind that broad/thicker ring bands (larger than 6mm) will fit tighter. It is better to choose half a size up when purchasing a thicker band, for the ring to be comfortable.
- Slim rings – If the ring is sleek and slim, we recommend that you opt for a slightly smaller size.
- Stacking rings – When you buy slim stackers, ensure a comfortable fit depending on how many you plan to stack. For just a few, pick a snug-fitting ring size. For six or more, you’ll want a slightly looser fit.
