Very much has already been told about how to find out the size of the ring, and each popular online trading platform tries to offer its customers not one but a few options to select from, to reduce the risk of a failed purchase. This article contains the most common options and methods that answer the question of how to determine the size of the ring, after reading which, everyone can choose for themselves the most suitable. Moreover, they all differ in accuracy, allowing you to determine the size of the desired ring independently.
What are the sizes of rings?
Rings start with size 15 and end with size 23. Each next size is 0.5 more than the previous one, which significantly simplifies the choice. In our country, Indian ring sizes are used, but there are several “dimensional grids,” so before you buy gold rings online, you must know which size system the selected online store adheres to. And then use the following techniques and find out your finger size for the ring.
Women’s rings are most often made in sizes from 15 to 18, among which the size 16.5 is most common. The inner circumference, measured in millimeters, will be the size of the ring.
Method number 1. A particular device that resembles a ring with divisions is a finger.
Such a device is in jewelry boutiques, but you can easily make it yourself by searching for a template on the Internet, printing it out and cutting it out. Then you need to wrap the paper template in the form of a ring and put it on the finger on which the ring is bought. And the division on the strip will accurately show the size of the jewelry.
You cannot measure other fingers since even same fingers on the left, and right hand will differ in size. Conditions such as time of day, air humidity and general well-being also play a significant role. It is proved that it is best to take measurements at noon when the fingers have not yet swelled.
Method number 2. Attach to the ring that is already worn
Sometimes this option turns out to be the most successful, because if you take your favorite and most “convenient” ring as a model, then the new one will fit correctly. The ring should be put on a sheet of paper and outline its inner circumference. Then choose the largest size and measure it in millimeters.
Method number 3. Using a special table
This is the most correct of all the options while doing silver rings shopping since the table indicates the dimensions of the rings as clearly as possible. The risk of being mistaken is minimized, the main thing is to measure the thickness of a finger correctly in the place where the ring should be. After that, the thread is measured, and then the millimeters obtained using the table are transformed into the desired size of the jewelry.
It is imperative to check that the obtained diameter of the thread passes through the joint. Otherwise, it will be problematic to put on the ring.
If size is determined for a narrow ring whose width is less than 5 mm, then it is better to round the size down, but for wide rings, a more significant value should be chosen.
