How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home
Finding the perfect ring is always an exciting experience, whether you're treating yourself or searching for a gift for a loved one. However, many people don't actually know their ring size.
Fortunately, there are several quick and easy ways to measure your ring size accurately from the comfort of your own home. This guide will outline how you can find your perfect fit.
Using a Ring that You Already Have And Measuring On B.P.’s Ring Size Guide
- Print Page 2 of B.P. de Silva’s Jewellery Sizing Guide, with page scaling set to 100%.
- Place a ring that you already own (or have borrowed, if this is a surprise engagement or a gift) over the circles to the right.
- Match the inside of the ring to the circle nearest in size. The measurements shown refer to a ring's inner diameter. Match your ring to the circle nearest in size to get a more accurate result.
- If your ring falls in between two sizes, we recommend going for the larger size.
How to Measure Your Ring Size using a Ribbon or String
- Use a light-coloured string or ribbon with a length of 10cm, and wrap it comfortably around the largest part of your finger - for many, it is the joint nearest to the knuckle (as illustrated on page 3 in our guide). Take a pen, and mark this point on the string.
- Measure the points on your string with a ruler.
- Refer to the "circumference" measurements on the next page to determine your ring size.
- Should your measurement fall in between sizes, we would recommend to size up.

Additional Tips for Measuring Your Ring Size Accurately
To ensure you get an accurate ring size measurement, keep these helpful tips in mind:
- Temperature: Measuring your ring size at normal room temperature, when the temperature is not too hot nor too cold would be the best practice.
- Factor in your knuckle size: If the knuckle is significantly larger than the base of the finger, you can measure both areas and choose a size in between, or consult your B.P. de Silva Jewellery Specialist for their expert opinion.
- Measure multiple times: For the most reliable result, measure your ring size 3-4 times using various methods.
- Comfort is key: If you’re in between sizes, determine which size is most comfortable for you to wear. A ring that’s too small may cause discomfort after prolonged wear, and a ring that’s too big may slide off – choose the size that fits you best.
