How to Determine Your Perfect Ring Size

A Complete Guide for Comfort, Style & Precision

Finding your perfect ring size is essential for both comfort and security. Whether you're treating yourself or gifting someone special, a well-fitting ring feels better, looks better, and lasts longer.

At Amaraa, we want every ring to feel just right — combining ethical elegance with the perfect fit. Here’s your complete guide to finding your accurate ring size.

Why Ring Size Matters

  • A tight ring can feel uncomfortable and restrict blood flow.

  • A loose ring risks slipping off and getting lost.

  • The ideal fit should slide on easily and come off with a slight tug over the knuckle.

Getting the right size ensures your ring is both secure and stylish — especially for everyday wear or special occasions like engagements and anniversaries.

4 Easy Methods to Measure Your Ring Size at Home

1. Use a Ring Sizer Tool (Most Accurate)

  • Purchase a plastic or metal ring sizer online or visit a jewelry store.

  • Try different sizes to find the one that feels snug but comfortable.

  • Amaraa Tip: Keep a ring sizer at home if you frequently shop for rings online.

2. Measure an Existing Ring

  • Already have a ring that fits well? Here’s what to do:

  • Place it on a flat surface.

  • Use a ruler to measure the inside diameter in millimeters.

  • Compare the measurement to a standard ring size chart.

3. String or Paper Method (Quick DIY Option)

  • Cut a thin strip of paper or string (around 6 inches long).

  • Wrap it around the base of your finger.

  • Mark where it overlaps.

  • Measure the length in millimeters.

  • Use a chart to find the matching ring size.

4. Use a Measuring Tape

  • Wrap a soft measuring tape around the base of your finger.

  • Note the measurement where the ends meet (in mm).

  • Check a ring size conversion chart for your size.

Tips for Accurate Ring Size Measurement

  • Measure at the End of the Day: Fingers swell slightly throughout the day.

  • Avoid Measuring When Cold: Cold fingers shrink, leading to inaccurate sizing.

  • Measure Multiple Times: Take 2–3 measurements and use the average.

  • Consider Your Dominant Hand: It may be slightly larger than the non-dominant one.

Understanding Ring Size Charts

Ring sizes vary by country. Use the correct regional chart when converting your measurements.

What If You're Between Ring Sizes?

If your measurement falls between sizes, always choose the larger size. It allows more comfort and accommodates natural finger swelling throughout the day.

Extra Tips When Buying a Ring

  • Wider Bands Fit Tighter: Consider going up half a size for wide bands.

  • Check Resizability: Some designs (like eternity bands or intricate patterns) are harder to resize.

  • Ask a Professional: When in doubt, visit a local jeweler for an expert measurement.
