Tips for Accurate Sizing
- Measure your finger at the end of the day when it's largest.
- Cold fingers are smaller, warm fingers are larger.
- Wider bands feel tighter; consider sizing up for wide rings.
- If between sizes, choose the larger size.
- Your dominant hand is usually slightly larger.
- Knuckles can be wider than finger bases; ensure the ring slides over comfortably.
- Pregnancy and weight changes can affect ring size; consider temporary adjustments.
- Seasonal changes can affect finger size; summer fingers may be larger due to heat.
- For accurate sizing, measure 3-4 times on different days.
Understanding AU Ring Size Measurements
AU ring sizes are measured in several ways:
- Inside Diameter: The measurement across the inner circle of the ring.
- Inside Circumference: The measurement around the inner circle of the ring.
- Letter System: AU uses letters A-Z, with each letter representing a specific diameter.
AU Ring Size System
The AU ring size system uses letters (A-Z) rather than numbers, following the same system as the UK. AU sizes are measured in millimeters based on the inside circumference of the ring. This system is also used in New Zealand and several other countries.
Finger Size Variations
Your finger size can change due to:
- Time of day (larger in evening, smaller in morning)
- Temperature (larger when warm, smaller when cold)
- Seasonal changes
- Weight fluctuations
- Medical conditions that cause swelling
