How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home

Buying a ring online, or as a surprise gift, and not sure about the size? The good news is that you can find it at home in two minutes, with a ruler and either a ring that already fits or a piece of string.

Method 1: measure a ring that already fits

  1. Pick a ring that fits well on the finger you want to wear the new ring on.
  2. Place it on a ruler and measure the inside diameter from edge to edge, in millimeters.
  3. Find the closest number in the chart below.

Method 2: measure your finger with string or paper

  1. Wrap a thin strip of paper or a piece of string around the base of your finger – snug, but not tight.
  2. Mark the point where the ends meet.
  3. Lay it flat and measure the length in millimeters – this is your finger's circumference.
  4. Match it to the chart.

Ring size chart

US size Inside diameter (mm) Circumference (mm) EU size
5 15.7 49.3 49
6 16.5 51.9 52
7 17.3 54.4 54
8 18.1 57.0 57
9 18.9 59.5 59

Tips for an accurate result

  • Measure in the evening – fingers are slightly wider at the end of the day, and when it's warm.
  • Between two sizes? Choose the larger one.
  • Wide band? Go up half a size – wide rings feel tighter.
  • Buying a surprise? Borrow a ring she wears often (on the same finger) and measure it with method 1.
