choosing the right ring size

Option 1: Visit any local jewelry store and have your finger size measured

Option 2: Visit our showroom for an accurate finger size measurement (by appointment only)

Option 3: Measuring your finger size at home | DIY

When it comes to this option of measuring the size of your finger, there is much advice online on how to DIY at home. Perhaps you even have heard of methods such as using pieces of string or paper. The reality is these methods are all highly inaccurate and may show completely distorted results, which would be regrettable, especially when planning a surprise proposal. How do we know this? Simply because we’ve tried and tested them ourselves. At Dino Rossi Executive Jewelry, we want to give you the most honest advice so you have less to worry about. So simply said, avoid measuring your finger yourself; it is too risky and we do not recommend it. However, if no other option is available to you, you may try the following option.

Method 4: Measure a ring you already own | DIY

We consider measuring your own ring a safer method compared with measuring your finger. Follow these steps:

1. 1. Find a ring that already fits your finger comfortably without being too loose. Choose one you wear on the same finger you’ll wear the new ring to get the best results. Do not choose a misshapen, ornate or wide-banded ring as this will result in inaccurate measurements.

1. 1. Measure your ring diameter using a ruler. Lay the ring on a flat surface and place a ruler on top of the ring. Measure the ring (inside diameter) on the widest part of the ring. When it comes to selecting the perfect ring size, precision is key, as even a few millimeters can make a difference.

3. 3. If your ring sits between two sizes, you can order a half size. If you are planning a proposal, however, we recommend you opt for the largest size.

3. 3. Please keep in mind these home measurements are for guidance only as they may hold inaccurate results if not handled properly.

 

Things to consider

• • The fingers on your dominant hand tend to be larger than those on your non-dominant hand, so keep that in mind when measuring for your ring size.

• • Ring size may vary according to temperature. Cold weather can cause your fingers to shrink a bit, while heat or water retention caused by food or medications, can cause finger swelling.

• • You should always try your measurement three or four times for better accuracy.

• • Your fingers tend to swell in the day and are larger towards the evening. To avoid any discomfort, we recommend you measure your fingers in the evening.

• • If your measurement falls between two sizes, always opt for the larger size to ensure better comfort.
