Buying a ring online — for yourself or as a surprise gift — starts with one crucial step: getting the size right. Here's how to measure accurately at home, no jeweler required.
Method 1: Measure an Existing Ring
Choose a ring that already fits the intended finger well. Measure the inner diameter in millimeters using a ruler, or lay it over our printable size chart. Match the diameter to the closest size on our Size Guide.
Method 2: The String or Paper Strip Method
Wrap a thin strip of paper or string snugly around the base of the finger. Mark where the ends meet, then measure the length in millimeters. Compare this measurement to our size chart to find the matching ring size.
Tips for an Accurate Measurement
- Measure at the end of the day, when fingers are at their largest.
- Avoid measuring when your hands are cold — fingers shrink slightly in cold temperatures.
- If you're between two sizes, size up for comfort.
- Measure your dominant hand, as fingers can differ slightly in size between hands.
Buying a Surprise Gift?
Borrow a ring the person already wears on the correct finger and use Method 1, or ask a close friend or family member for a discreet estimate. Many of our rings also feature an adjustable band for extra peace of mind.
