Ring Sizing
Easy ways to measure your ring size
Tools:
- A piece of thin strip paper or threads / Scissors / ruler / Pen
Steps:
- Use a piece of thin strip paper or threads, wrap it around your finger, make sure the paper is BELOW THE JOINT of your finger and close to your knuckle.
- Mark the spot where the paper meets and measure the distance with your ruler.
- Use ring size chart to determine your ring size.
- Measure the size 3-4 TIMES to be sure that the measurements are accurate or it is best to go for the LARGER size (eg: 52mm(circumference) > US 6 - 6.5).
(If your knuckle is much bigger than the base of your finger, measure both areas and find a size in between.)
