How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home
If you can’t visit us in person, measuring your ring size at home is easy. Here are two methods:
Method 1: Measuring an Existing Ring
- Choose a well-fitting ring that fits the intended finger.
-
Measure the inner diameter:
- Place the ring on a ruler and measure the inside edge from one side to the other in millimetres.
- Match the diameter: Use the chart below to find your ring size based on the diameter.

Method 2: Using String or Paper
If you don’t have a ring handy, use a strip of paper or a piece of string to measure your finger:
- Cut a thin strip of paper (or use string).
- Wrap it around the base of your finger, ensuring it's snug but not too tight.
- Mark the point where the paper or string overlaps.
- Measure the length in millimetres.
- Use the circumference chart below to find your size.
| Finger Circumference (mm) | US Ring Size | UK Ring Size | EU Size | Japanese Size |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 44.2 | 3 | F | 44 | 4 |
| 45.5 | 3.5 | G | 45.5 | 6 |

Helpful Tips for Accurate Ring Measurement
- Time of Day: Measure your fingers at the end of the day when they are at their largest. Cold weather may cause your fingers to shrink, while heat can make them expand.
- Finger Fluctuations: Fingers change size slightly depending on the hand, temperature, or time of day. Ensure that your measurement is taken when your finger is at its normal size.
- Ring Width: Wider rings tend to fit more tightly than thinner rings, so if you're purchasing a band that’s wider than normal, consider sizing up slightly.

Additional Notes
- Resizing: If you find your ring is not the right size, we offer resizing services at Jenelle's Jewellers to ensure a comfortable fit.
- Gift Considerations: If you’re buying a ring as a gift and don’t know the exact size, opt for a slightly larger size. It’s easier to size down than to enlarge a ring.
