How to find your Ring Size

One of the biggest problems when buying a ring online, is knowing what ring size you need, whether it be for yourself or a present for someone else. However sizing your finger for a ring is very simple and can be done in many different ways as we explain below.

Always make sure your hands are warm before measuring your fingers and ensure you measure for comfortable fit - not too tight and not too loose.

Method 1 : Measure the inside diameter in millimetres of a ring that is comfortable on the finger you want to wear your new ring on

Method 2 : Wrap a piece of string or cotton around the base of the finger you wish to size, selecting the snuggest fit that still fits over your knuckle. Make a mark at the point where the string/cotton overlaps. Measure the string/cotton to give you your ring size in mm.

By looking at the chart below, you can use the measurements you have taken to check against various industry standard ring sizes.


At Taylor & Vine, the majority of our rings come in Small, Medium and Large sizes. A small size is approx a UK size L, medium - size N and Large - size P.
