In the selection of rings, the accuracy of the measurement is as important as the elegance. At Silvalli, we want to create an experience for you that is both elegant and comfortable. That’s why we’ve put together our step-by-step guide on taking a ring size.
How to Take Ring Size?
1. By Measuring Finger Circumference
Should: A flexible string, tape measure or a small piece of paper, ruler.
- Wrap the rope or paper of your choice around the thickest part of your finger.
- It should be neither too tight nor too loose.
- Mark the point that comes end-to-end.
- Then measure the length in millimeters with a ruler.
- This length becomes “circumference”. You can find out what size it corresponds to from the Silvalli ring table.
For example: 6cm finger circumference corresponds to a size 20 ring.
2. Measurement with an existing ring
Should: Ruler or caliper
- Place a ring that fits perfectly on your finger on a flat surface.
- Measure its inner diameter (internal distance from edge to edge) in millimeters.
- Check the diameter measure you have obtained and the measurement equivalent from the Silvalli table.
For example: A ring diameter of 1.91cm corresponds to a size 20 ring.
3. Use Silvalli Ring Size Chart
Once you have determined your finger circumference or the diameter of the ring, you can easily find the correct number from the Silvalli ring size chart.
What You Need to Pay Attention to During Measurement
- Be at your normal body temperature when measuring your finger. Body temperature can affect the size.
- It is usually more accurate to take measurements at the end of the day, because the fingers are in their most natural form.
- Choose a size that can also pass comfortably through the joint part of the finger.
The Importance of Getting the Right Ring Size
1. Comfort
A narrow ring squeezes your finger, hinders circulation. A loose ring, on the other hand, falls off easily. The right size means all-day comfort.
2. Long Lasting Use
Incorrect measurements can damage the structure of the ring. The proper size allows the metal to last for many years without deformation.
3. Aesthetic Posture
A ring of the right size is balanced on the finger and reveals its elegance.
4. Preservation of Emotional Value
Especially in rings loaded with meaning such as engagement, promise, marriage, the right size ensures that the meaning is integrated with comfort.
The Harms of Buying the Wrong Ring Size
1. Finger Impingement and Blood Circulation Problems
Narrow rings can affect blood circulation, leading to irritation and bruising. Immediate intervention may be required.
2. Risk of Ring Loss
Large rings can easily rotate, fall off and disappear on the finger.
3. Damaged Metal and Stones
Damage to the ring metal such as abrasion or stone fall may occur due to incorrect size.
4. Daily Discomfort
When using your hands, constant snags, discomfort and aesthetic problems may occur.
