Are you looking to buy a ring online but need help determining your ring size?
Don't worry, we've got you covered! Finding the right ring size is essential to ensure a comfortable fit. In this blog post, we will guide you on how to check your ring size and provide a comparison between US size, UK size, European size, and Indian size in milimetres.
How to Check Your Ring Size
You can use a few simple methods to determine your ring size at home.
Method 1
One popular method is to use a ring sizer tool, which you can easily find online or at your local jewellery store.
Method 2
Don't worry, there's a simple trick to determine your ring size using just a piece of cloth!
What You'll Need:
All you need is a strip of paper or a piece of string, a ruler, and a pen or marker.
Step 1: Measure Your Finger
Wrap the strip of paper or string around the base of your finger where you'll wear the ring. Make sure it's snug but not too tight.
Step 2: Mark the Length
Use the pen or marker to mark where the paper or string overlaps. This will give you the circumference of your finger.
Step 3: Measure the Length
Use a ruler to measure the length in millimetres. This measurement corresponds to your ring size. You can use a ring size chart to find the exact size.
Pro Tips:
- Measure your finger at the end of the day when it's the largest.
- If you're between sizes, it's better to go up a size for comfort.
With this simple method, you can now determine your size ring easily.
US Size vs. UK size vs. European Size vs. Indian Size
Different countries use various ring sizing systems. In the US, ring sizes are typically measured using a numerical scale ranging from 3 to 13. Europe uses a numerical scale ranging from 44 to 70, while the UK denotes ring sizes by letters ranging from A to Z. In India, ring sizes are measured in millimetres, with sizes ranging from 10 to 30. Understanding these differences ensures you get the right fit when shopping internationally.
For example, if you wear a US size 7 ring, the equivalent European size would be around 54, and the Indian size would be approximately 17.3mm. It's important to note that these conversions are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the brand or jeweller.
