Size Guide
Ordering jewelry without trying it on requires knowing your size. Here's how to find it in just a few minutes, at home.
Rings
Method 1 — with a ring you already wear
This is the most reliable method. Take a ring that fits the target finger well, place it on a ruler, and measure the inside diameter in millimeters, from one inner edge to the other. Compare it to the table below.
Method 2 — with a strip of paper
Cut a strip of paper about 1 cm wide. Wrap it around the base of your finger, neither tight nor loose, mark the meeting point with a pencil, then unroll and measure the length to the mark. This is your circumference.
Our article How to measure your ring size details both methods and pitfalls to avoid.

Four tips to avoid mistakes
- Measure at the end of the day. Fingers swell slightly throughout the day and in warm weather. A ring measured in the morning might be too tight in the evening.
- Do not measure when you are cold. Fingers shrink, sometimes by a full half size.
- Check the knuckle. The ring must pass the knuckle without forcing. If your knuckle is wider than the base of your finger, take the knuckle size.
- Wide bands fit tighter. For a ring wider than 6 mm, take a half size larger.
Between two sizes? Take the larger one. A slightly loose ring can be worn; a ring that is too small cannot.
Bracelets and Bangles
The sizes indicated on our product sheets correspond to the circumference in centimeters. An 18 size bracelet measures 18 cm around.
To measure: wrap a soft tape measure or a strip of paper around your wrist, just below the prominent bone, without tightening. Then add according to the desired fit:
- Snug — add 1 cm
- Comfortable — add 1.5 to 2 cm
- Loose — add 2.5 to 3 cm
Rigid bangles do not open: they must pass over the hand. Instead, measure the circumference of your hand, with your thumb folded towards your palm, at its widest point.
Necklaces and Chains
Lengths are given in centimeters, measured from end to end, including the clasp.
- 40 to 42 cm — choker, rests at the base of the neck
- 45 cm — classic length, falls just below the collarbone
- 50 cm — extends to the upper chest
- 55 to 60 cm — long necklace, worn alone or layered
