How to Measure Your Finger and Find the Perfect Ring Size

Choosing the right ring size ensures both comfort and elegance — especially with the fine, refined designs of Elegantia. If you're unsure of your size, follow this simple step-by-step guide to measure your finger accurately at home.


1. The String or Ribbon Method

This is the easiest way to measure your finger at home:

  1. Wrap a piece of string, ribbon or thin strip of paper around the base of your finger.
  2. Mark the point where the ends meet.
  3. Lay it flat and measure the length with a ruler (in millimetres).
  4. Compare your measurement with the size chart below.

Tip: Measure your finger at the end of the day when it’s slightly larger for a more accurate fit.


2. Measure an Existing Ring

If you already own a ring that fits perfectly, measure its internal diameter (across the inside). Then match your measurement with the guide below.

Ring Size (EU) Internal Diameter (mm) Finger Circumference (mm)
48 15.3 48.0
50 15.9 50.0
52 16.5 52.0
54 17.2 54.0
56 17.8 56.0
58 18.5 58.0
60 19.1 60.0

Note: Elegantia follows the European (EU) ring sizing system, with half sizes available on certain delicate designs.


3. Elegantia Tips

  • Avoid measuring your finger when it’s cold — it may appear smaller.
  • Fingers on your dominant hand are usually slightly larger.
  • If you’re between two sizes, choose the larger one for everyday comfort.
  • Thin bands feel looser, while wider rings fit more snugly.

4. When Comfort Meets Elegance

Finding your perfect ring size is the first step to truly appreciating the comfort and craftsmanship behind every Elegantia design — pieces made to accompany you with sophistication and confidence, day after day.
