RING SIZING Rings need to fit well to be comfortable and to minimize the risk of loss from your finger. The most accurate method available to measure ring fingers is to use a finger gauge. This
tool of the trade is usually found at jewelry stores and consists of
rings of narrow and wide widths, accurately sized, to be tried on by a
person needing their ring size. Remember that your finger size will change with
temperature - less blood flows to the hands when the hands are cold, so
the fingers are then slimmer. Measure your fingers when your hands are
at their usual temperature. The
correct size allows the ring to just slip over the knuckle, not loosely
but not so tightly that heroic efforts are required to remove it.
Remember that people's left and right hands are usually not identical
in size. It should be kept in mind that a wide ring will fit a little
more tightly than a narrow ring of the same size. One more thing! The size of your left ring finger is not the same size as your right ring finger. Measure for the finger you are actually buying your ring for! The best method of getting the correct ring size is to visit your local jeweler. |
