Ring Sizing

A ring should feel secure without pinching, and slide over your knuckle with a little gentle resistance — snug enough that it won't spin or slip off, easy enough that you can take it on and off. Getting there is simple with a bit of care, and a half-size is the difference between a ring you forget you're wearing and one you keep fidgeting with.

Find your size at home

Two ways to measure at home
  1. 1Inside diameter
    Measure straight across the inside of a ring that fits.
  2. 2Circumference
    Wrap a strip around the finger, mark the overlap, measure its length.

US sizes. Diameter is the inside of the ring; match your measurement to the nearest row.

You don't need a jeweler in the room to get a reliable starting point. Two methods work well:

  1. Measure a ring you already own. Take a ring that fits the correct finger comfortably and measure the inside diameter across the middle with a ruler in millimeters. Match that measurement to a ring-size chart — it maps cleanly to a standard size.
  2. Wrap and measure. Snug a thin strip of paper or string around the base of the finger, mark where it overlaps, and measure that length in millimeters. That's your finger's circumference, which also maps directly to a size.

A few things change the answer, so control for them: measure late in the day, when fingers are at their largest, and only when your hands are warm — cold fingers can shrink as much as a full size. If you land between sizes, round up; loosening a tight band is harder than snugging a loose one.

What "comfort fit" means

"Comfort fit" refers to the inside shape of the band. A standard band has a flat interior; a comfort-fit band is gently rounded on the inside so it glides over the knuckle and rests more softly against the skin. Because that rounded profile reduces contact, comfort-fit bands tend to feel about a half-size looser than a standard band of the same marked size — so if you're sizing for a comfort-fit ring, account for it.

When in doubt

If you're buying a surprise, or simply want certainty, order an inexpensive plastic ring sizer to wear for a day, or reach out to our concierge — we'll help you measure, talk through comfort fit, and make sure the ring is right before it ever ships. Getting the fit perfect is part of what we do.
