Rings

​

Any of your local high street jewellers will be able measure your finger size for you. Ring sizes in the UK are measured alphabetically and if possible be sure the ring sizers you try on are the same width as the ring you intend to order.

A good fit is one that goes on without a struggle but needs a wiggle to come off. Our hands can swell when they’re hot, so try to get measured when you’re relaxed and at a normal temperature.

Rebecca offers this service free of charge from her workshop in North Cardiff. You can also purchase a plastic ring sizer for you to measure at home here.

Things To Consider;

• Rings should slide on easily over the knuckle and be comfortable on - not tight. They should be a little harder to push off over the knuckle.  Your ring should be a snug fit and shouldn't slide off by itself. 

• Thinner bands are likely to feel larger on than thicker bands - bare this is mind when sizing your finger as the sizer you use may not be accurate to the style you are purchasing. Generally, this will alter up to a 1/4 size.

• Your fingers will change size slightly throughout the day, with the temperature and physical activity having an effect.

• If your hands are cold, your fingers can be up to half a size smaller with an opposite effect on a particularly hot day.

• Any ring with a wide band width will require to be slightly larger than your normal size (up to one or two sizes) so keep this in mind when choosing your ring.  This includes stacking rings!
