Before buying a ring, you need to accurately measure your ring size. Sometimes, you need to know your size before going to your jeweler, also if you are buying it as a gift; you may want to make it a surprise. Before proceeding with the measuring steps, here are some tips:
- Measure your finger at the end of the day
- Measure your finger when it’s not cold nor hot to get accurate results
- Measure the finger which you are going to wear the ring on
- Add 1-2 mm on the measurement result.
- If you are confused between two sizes, choose the large one.
Steps:
- Get a piece of paper and wrap it around your finger
- Mark the point where the two edges of the paper meet
- Measure the paper from the beginning until the marked point.
