How
to establish the correct ring size
To
ensure a comfortable and safe fit a ring must be the correct size for the wearer.
This is achieve by using an established table of ring sizes
from which the correct size is selected and then the ring is made or resized
to that size.
If
the ring is for a gift then having the correct size will ensure that the surprise
is a magical moment that will never be forgotten. And with a little planning,
it can come off brilliantly.
Finding a person's
ring size without their knowing is not as difficult as you might think. Here
are some solutions to getting the persons' ring size while keeping your gift
a surprise. Keep in mind that the ring size will vary for each finger.
- Bring one of
their rings into our store without arousing any suspicion. Offer to take their
jewellery to be cleaned and when you bring it in we will measure it at the
same time.
- Make an impression
of an existing ring which you know fits the desired finger. A bar of soap
or a piece of clay can be used to take a reliable measurement.
- Trace the inside
of the ring on a piece of paper.
- Put
one of their rings on your own finger. Push it down as far as it will go and
then mark the spot with a pen. Then just show us the marking and we can measure
it for you.
- Email us and
we will send out one of our ring size cards for you to try on when they are
asleep. (only suggested for very heavy sleepers).
