Before purchasing a new ring for your partner, or shopping for your wedding bands, knowing your ring size is a crucial part of the process if you want your beautiful new ring to fit correctly. 

When your ring is too small, it can cause pain. And if it's too big, you could lose it. Avoid both by measuring your ring size. 

How do I measure ring size?

American ring sizes range from a size three to thirteen. 54 mm in circumference is a ring size of seven. In the UK, ring sizes range from F to Z. 

Measuring your ring size is done by taking the circumference of your ring finger or the finger you want to wear your ring on. 

How can I measure my ring size at home?

There are a couple of methods to measure your ring size at home. You can find a ring size chart online that you can print out and then compare your existing jewelry. You can use string or dental floss to measure the circumference. You can use a ruler to determine the millimeters and compare them to a ring chart. 

You can also purchase a sizing tool that jewelry stores use. Stopping into an Arcadia jewelry repair shop will be a quick way to find out your ring size. 

The most accurate method is to visit a jeweler, but if you're looking to surprise your partner, you may need to be a bit more covert. 

Compare an existing ring

One of the easiest (and sneakiest) ways to get your partner's ring size is to take a ring they often wear and measure it. Using a jeweler tool or the ring size chart, you can find the size easily. 

Floss or string

This method will require you to ask your partner to measure their finger. Put the string or floss around the thickest part of the finger and mark it with a pen or ink. Measure it against a ruler and look up a sizing chart to give you an accurate answer. 

Get a sizing tool

You can easily buy a ring sizer for a reasonable price, and it can be one of the most accurate measurement tools. 

Visit a store that specializes in jewelry in Arcadia

Whether you visit a jewelry store or an Arcadia jewelry repair place, a professional can give you the most accurate measurement.

Your fingers change in size based on your body temperature, how much water you've had, and if you've recently eaten a lot of salt. If your fingers are a bit swollen, you may notice a change in your size.
