Ring Size Chart

This size chart will help you understand ring sizes in both UK and US standards, including their diameters. It will guide you through conversions to find the ideal size for your bespoke jewellery.

How to Find Your Partner’s Ring Size 

• Get Professionally Measured: The most accurate way to determine your ring size is by visiting us or a trusted jeweller. They’ll have you try on sample sizes and use a professional sizing tool to ensure the best fit. If you're local, we’d love to welcome you for a complimentary sizing appointment.

• Consider Temperature Changes: Your fingers naturally swell in warmer temperatures and shrink when cold. For the most precise measurement, make sure your hands are at a neutral temperature. If needed, running them under room-temperature water for a few moments can help stabilise them.

• Ring Width Matters: Wider bands tend to fit more snugly than thinner ones. If you’re choosing a wider band, you may need to go up a half or full size to ensure a comfortable fit.

• Finger Shape & Knuckle Size: If you have larger knuckles but slimmer fingers, you may need a slightly looser fit to slide the ring over your knuckle while still sitting securely on your finger.

• Understanding Sizing Measurements: Ring sizes can be measured using either the ‘leading edge’ or ‘centre’ method. If you’ve had your ring size taken elsewhere, just let us know which method was used so we can ensure an accurate fit.

• Resizing Limitations: While we can adjust most rings up or down by 2-3 sizes, some designs—such as full eternity bands or intricate settings—can be more difficult to resize. If you’re considering a ring style that may have limitations, we’ll be happy to guide you to the best size from the start.

• Fluctuations Over Time: Your ring size may change due to seasonal swelling, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or other factors. If you’re between sizes, we can help you decide on the best fit for long-term comfort.

• International Sizing Conversions: If you’re ordering from outside the UK, let us know your local ring size, and we’ll ensure it’s accurately converted to the UK sizing system.
