Are you unsure about what ring size to purchase? Don't worry, we've got you covered. Here's everything you need to know about measuring your ring size accurately.

Tips Before You Begin

Before diving into the methods for measuring your ring size, here are two essential tips to keep in mind:

  • A ring should fit snugly—neither too loose that it falls off nor too tight that it's uncomfortable to wear.
  • Your finger size can fluctuate throughout the day due to various factors like activity level, weather, and diet. It's recommended to measure your finger size multiple times throughout the day to ensure the most accurate result.

Method 1: Measure Ring Size Using a String

  1. Get a piece of string: Wrap it snugly around the base of your finger, bringing both ends together.
  2. Mark the point where the two ends meet.
  3. Measure the length of the string: Use a ruler or tape measure to measure the length of the string in millimeters (mm). Consult the ring size measurement chart provided below to determine your ring size.

Buying a Ring for Someone Else? Here's What to Do:

If you're purchasing a ring for someone else and need to determine their ring size, consider these options:

  • Use one of their existing rings to measure the internal diameter.
  • Ask a family member or friend who might know their ring size.
  • Get creative and measure the circumference of their finger discreetly.
  • When in doubt, simply ask them directly—it's better to ensure the right fit than to risk purchasing the wrong size.
  • You may want to consider purchasing a e-gift card from Jewmei.

With these methods and tips, you can confidently find the perfect ring size for yourself or your loved ones. Happy shopping!
