Whether you’re buying a ring, or a necklace or a bracelet, whether for yourself or for gifting, it is important that you buy the correct size. The Sizes listed below will help you determine the right size.

Remember however, the most foolproof way to determine the correct size, is to visit our store. The store-attendant has standard tools to measure the accurate size.

 
 

Ring Sizes Option 1

If you already know your latest, most recent ring-size, just order as per that. Ring-sizes are standard worldwide.

Measuring the finger: If however, you wish to measure your size, you can use our Ring Sizer. Here are the steps:

  • Click here to open the file. It will open in your PC’s Acrobat Reader.

  • To print correctly the document, make sure the print-options are set to print the page at 100% normal size, with no Shrinking or Expanding of page to fit the page. Since screen resolution and printer settings vary for every user, these measurements are only approximate.

  • Print the document

  • Cut out the ring size

  • Cut a slit for Slot "A"

  • With the numbers facing out, wrap the sizer around the finger where the ring will be worn.

  • Pull the pointed end Tab "B" through Slot "A" until the sizer is snug, making sure to allow size for the knuckle.

  • The number aligned with Slot "B" is your ring size.

  • If the measure lands between two numbers your size is a half size Ex: Between 5 and 6 ring size: 5.5. If half sizes are not available, order the next largest size. If you’re still unsure, it is better to order a size ½ size larger. ‘Just to be on the safe side.

 

Ring Sizes Option 2

Measuring a Ring: if you already have a worn ring for reference, simply slide it over a skinned-carrot, till as far as it will easily go. Don’t force it. Mark the spot on the carrot, and wrap the Ring Sizer around it to know the correct size.

Alternatively, print this PDF, and place the ring over one of the pictures, till you get the correct size. Make sure the INSIDE diameter of the ring lines up with the OUTSIDE of the circle closest in size. If the ring is between circle sizes, go up to the next ½ size. This is the approximate ring size.

 
 

Necklace and Chain Sizer

If you already know your latest, most recent necklace-size, just order as per that. Necklace-sizes are standard worldwide, and are always measured in inches.

 
Men's Standard Chain Sizes:
16" Choker length
18" Base of the neck (*for smaller neck sizes)
20" To collarbone (*most common length for average men)
22" A few inches below the collarbone
24" Just above the sternum
Women's Standard Necklace Sizes :
16" Choker length
17-18" At collarbone
20" A few inches below collarbone
22" At or above neckline
24" Below the neckline
 
 

Measuring Your Neck Size

If you don't know what size your neck is, you can use a sewing (soft) measuring tape. If you have a tape measure, that problem is solved. If you don't have a soft measuring tape but have a yardstick, ruler or stiff metal measuring tape, you could wrap a ribbon around the base of your neck, mark the spot where it meets, and then lay it against the yardstick or metal measuring tape to determine your neck size.

 
 

Choosing the Correct Necklace or Chain length

General Sizing for Necklaces and Chains

Once you know your neck size, it is advisable to choose at a minimum, the second size up from your neck size. For example, for a man with a 17 ½" collar (neck) size, a chain length of 20" is recommended at a minimum. With women of a neck size of 15", the minimum recommended length would be 17-18" which is a step above the next standard length of 16".

 
 

Choosing Chain Lengths for Men

Chain lengths for men are typically chosen based on the man's collar size and typically fall just at the collar bone.
