To get the maximum pleasure out of wearing your favourite ring, it is important that it fits you correctly.

FINGER SIZE.
The average Briton wears their rings about two sizes too large. Theory for this is that it's easier for shops to send customers out with their ring slightly too large than it is to try to pinpoint the size and risk having to resize it up. For obvious reasons, customers are happier with a ring which is a size or two too large than one which is even a half size too small.
It follows from the above that most people who think they know their finger size, don't.
Many people seem to worry that having a ring size adjusted is going to be a major life threatening event. Either they are going to "lose some silver or gold" by having it sized down, or the shank will become thinner if they have it sized up.
Having a ring adjusted to your correct finger size need not be a traumatic event.

HOW DO I GET MY CORRECT SIZE?
Most jewellers use a set of plain metal finger size rings. This is the best way to measure your finger size. Cardboard or plastic devices are not sufficiently accurate.
We believe that the best way to find your correct size is to start with a size that slides easily onto the finger. Then progressively try smaller sizes until you find one which will not go on. Your correct size will be about half to one full size larger.
There is no substitute for having your finger measured professionally, but it's not an exact science.
Our fingers change in size from morning to evening, month to month and even Winter to Summer.
This assumes that the ring you wish to wear is about the same width as the sizing ring, and also depends whether it is a plain solid hoop. If it has a hollow head, you may find that you can wear a smaller size. In general a wider ring may need to be slightly larger, and a narrow ring may need to be slightly smaller. It also depends on your basic finger shape.

WHAT ABOUT ORDERING A RING ONLINE?
We recommend to visit a good local jeweller, and have your finger size measured. Do not forget to inform about ring’s width. Even if it costs a few pounds, it can be worthwhile.
