Frequently Asked Questions

There are several methods to measure your ring size: 1) Use a ring sizer at a jewelry store, 2) Measure a ring that fits well using our ring size chart, 3) Use a string or paper strip to measure your finger circumference.

Printable ring size charts can be accurate if printed at 100% scale and used correctly. However, for the most accurate measurement, we recommend visiting a jeweler or using a professional ring sizer.

US and UK ring sizes use different measurement scales. For example, a US size 6 is approximately equivalent to a UK size L. US sizes typically range from 3-13, while UK sizes use letters from A-Z.

Finger size can change throughout the day due to temperature, activity level, and diet. Fingers tend to be larger in the evening and when warm. It's best to measure your ring size at different times of day.

The ring finger is traditionally the fourth finger of the left hand in many Western cultures. However, some cultures wear wedding rings on the right hand. The choice of which hand to wear a ring on is largely cultural and personal.

If your ring size falls between two sizes, it's generally better to choose the larger size. This is especially true for wide bands and rings worn in warm weather. You can also consider having the ring professionally sized.

You can measure your ring size at home using: 1) A strip of paper wrapped around your finger, 2) A string marked where it overlaps, 3) A ring that fits well placed on our printable size chart. Remember to measure when your fingers are at room temperature.

You can use our ring size converter tool to convert your ring size to millimeters. Simply select your current size system, enter your size, and choose 'diameter' or 'circumference' in millimeters for the conversion.

A properly fitting ring should slide over your knuckle with slight resistance and sit comfortably at the base of your finger. It shouldn't be so tight that it leaves marks or indentations, nor so loose that it spins around easily.

Finger size can change due to temperature (cold makes fingers shrink, heat makes them expand), time of day (fingers are often larger in the evening), diet (salt intake can cause water retention), weight changes, and hormonal fluctuations.

Most rings can be resized by a jeweler, typically up to two sizes up or down. However, some designs like eternity bands with stones all around may be difficult or impossible to resize. Materials like tungsten and titanium cannot be resized.

The average ring size for women in the US is 6 to 6.5 (UK M to N), while for men it's 9 to 10 (UK S to T). However, there's significant variation based on height, weight, and hand size.

You can borrow a ring they already wear on the intended finger and measure it, trace the inside of the ring on paper, or compare it to a size chart. Alternatively, ask friends or family if they know the person's size, or involve a trusted friend in the surprise.

No, different countries use different ring sizing systems. The US uses numerical sizes, the UK uses alphabetical letters, and many European countries use circumference measurements in millimeters.
