Choosing the right size for a piece of personalised jewellery is essential to ensure optimal comfort and a perfect look. Whether it’s a ring, a bracelet or a necklace, the wrong size can spoil the pleasure of wearing it. Thea Jewelry guides you through the best methods for measuring and choosing the ideal size for your personalised jewellery.
Measuring the size for a ring, a bracelet or a necklace
Each type of jewellery requires a different method of measurement:
- Ring : Use a ring sizer or measure the inside diameter of an existing ring with a ruler. Refer to a size guide to find the exact equivalent.
- Bracelet : Measure the circumference of your wrist using a tape measure. For the perfect fit, add 1 cm for a snug fit and 2 cm for a looser fit.
- Necklace : Determine the ideal length based on the look you’re going for. A choker measures between 35 and 40 cm, a standard necklace around 45 cm, whilst a long necklace can be over 60 cm.
Tools and tips for choosing the right size
- Ring sizer and test ring: Ideal for taking an accurate measurement of your finger.
- String or ribbon: Wrap it round your finger, wrist or neck, mark the length, then measure it with a ruler.
- Comparison with a piece of jewellery you already own: Measure a piece of jewellery that you already own and that fits you well.
- Allowing for variations: Finger size can vary depending on the temperature and the time of day. It is best to measure at the end of the day.
