How to Determine Your Ring Size?

Option 2: Place a ring you already own over the size chart

1. Be sure that your printer will print at 100% scale, and print the size chart in this article or from the One Thousand Years Jewelry website.
2. Place your own ring over the various sizes until you find one that is the same size as the inside circumference of your own ring.

Option 3: Buy a tool that will measure your finger

If you plan to buy fine jewelry online, the best and most accurate way to measure your fingers is with a tool. There are two types of tools that you can purchase online that will measure your fingers and don’t cost much.

One is a thin plastic band with numbers inscribed on it that looks like a measuring tape you can slide on and off your finger, and the other is a keyring set with multiple rings that you can try on to determine your correct size. 

There are several best practices you can follow to get your ring size correct when you’re ordering online. 

• Firstly you should consider where you are purchasing the jewelry from. In the United States, ring sizes follow a scale of numbers, half numbers and even sometimes quarter numbers typically ranging from size 2-13 for adults. These number units fit the width of your finger in millimeters. 
• The time of day matters when you are determining your ring size. In the morning, your fingers might be thinner than in the evening.
• When the weather is warm, our fingers can swell, and conversely when the weather is cooler our fingers will be smaller in diameter.
• Consuming salty foods may make our fingers swell and change sizes.
• Measuring multiple times using different methods of measurement is the best way to obtain the most accurate sizing.
