Scoring a new ring? Then you need to know what size you need. And that can be quite tricky: for example, you might have rings that fit, but you have no idea what size they are. Or you know your size in the US variant, but what is that in other measurements? Don't panic, I'll help you out.
At the bottom of this article, you will find a table that allows you to easily see your size in different measurements. But I'll start by explaining how to find out your size in the first place.
What is my ring size?
In my shop, I use the simplest measurement: the ring size is the number of millimeters of the internal diameter of the ring. You can find this out in several ways:
Use a ring size tool
With a ring size tool, you can easily measure your own ring size. You slide the tool onto your finger, and you can immediately read your size! Buy it here for just €1,-
Measuring a fitting ring
The easiest way to find out your ring size is to measure a ring that fits. Place the ring on a tape measure or ruler, and measure the internal diameter. That number in mm is your ring size!
Measuring the circumference of your finger
Another option is to measure the circumference of your finger. The best way to do this is with a strip of paper or a piece of string, which you wrap around your finger. When you can slide it on and off like a ring without it falling off your finger, you can measure the piece. You'll find your ring size in the table at the bottom of this article.
Converting your ring size
As I mentioned earlier, different shops use different sizes. In the table below, you will find all sizes, and you can easily convert them to the size I use in this shop: the internal diameter in mm.
