However, knowing the right size for the silverly ring, one wishes to buy, plays a very important role in ensuring that it actually fits the person. Stressing how to find the right ring size? Worry not and just follow these simple steps and techniques as a remedy to measure your ring size at the comfort of your homes!
Why Know Your Correct Ring Size
Getting the correct ring size is of high importance if you are to wear your silver jewellery comfortably and securely. If your silver ring is loose, you might end up losing it. On the other hand, a tight one may cause you pain and become a hassle when you want to remove it. You can even buy silver ring online without knowing how big your ring size is. Therefore, it is actually important and convenient to know how to take the measure of your own ring size.
Materials Required to Take Ring Size Measurement at Home
Before you start, you will require a couple of common objects found in your home. Here's what you will require:
- A strip of paper or a string
- A ruler
- A pen or a marker
- A ring size chart or a conversion table
Method 1: How to Measure Ring Size Using a String or Paper
A very simple way to measure your ring size at home is by using a thin strip of paper or a string. Here's the guide:
- You can use either a string or a piece of paper, cut it into a length that is roughly 6 inches or 15 cm and about 1/4 inch or 6 mm wide.
- Wind the string or paper around the knuckle of that particular finger where you intend to wear the ring silver. Make sure that it is tight but not too tight.
- Using a pen or a marker, mark the point where both ends of the string or paper overlap.
- Use your ruler to measure the length on a flat string or paper from the end to the mark. That's your finger circumference in millimeters.
- Compare your length measurement for your string or paper to a ring size chart. Ring size charts have notations with finger circumference measurements next to the diameter measurements in millimeters.
Method 2: Measuring a Ring You Already Own
Another awesome option to measure your ring size at home is by using a ring that you already have that fits comfortably:
- Use your sterling silver ring that fits comfortably on the finger to be measured.
- Use a ruler or tape measure to measure the inside diameter of the ring, distance across the ring from one inner edge to the other measured straight across.
- Compare your measurement to a ring size conversion chart to get the size that matches up with your measurement.
Method 3: Printable Ring Size Chart
Most silver jewellery online stores like Inari Shines offer printable ring size charts. This means you can make the measurements of your silver ring silver at any time by putting your ring on the chart or by using a printable measuring tool.
- Download and print the ring size chart at 100% scale, not resized.
- Place your ring over the circles on the chart and look for the one that fits into the inside of your ring perfectly, so that there are no gaps left.
- The chart will have the ring size listed next to the circle the ring fits into.
You will also find charts that include a printable measuring strip to cut out to use as the paper method explained above.
Tips as You Measure Your Ring Size at Home
Taking measure of your 925 sterling silver ring size at home is easy, but here are a few things to keep in mind to get the most accurate reading:
- Your fingers expand and contract with size just like much of everything else – also with the temperature or if you have been active – so ideally take your finger measurement at the end of the day when fingers will be warm and slightly larger.
- Take several measurements of your ring size by following the same process and this should mitigate any slight discrepancies and give a closer approximation.
- In case you have slightly larger knuckles, the ring has to be able to fit over them easily without being too loose on the finger. This means you will have to choose a slightly larger size for this.
- Wide bands tend to run a little tighter than a dainty band. If you're ordering a wide band, you might want to size up half a size for comfort.
What if You Get It Wrong?
If you have already measured your ring size at home but still, it doesn't fit perfectly, do not worry! Many online silver jewellery stores like Inari Shines offer free resizing for new purchases. If there is the possibility of sizing, always check the store's policies before making a purchase.
