The accurate way to measure your ring size is using a metal ring sizer. If it's is not possible to measure your ring size then cheap ring sizers are available from Amazon. These can stretch and are not as accurrate as a metal ring sizer. Please remember that fingers wil measure slighly different depending on if your hands are hot or cold. Measure your ring size when your hands are warm, near the end of the day and measure the ring 3 - 4 times to prevent inaccuracies. If your knuckle is larger than the base of your finger, record both measurements, consider ordering a ring size in between the two sizes, but not so loose that you risk the ring slipping off. Please note if a ring requires resizing there is an additional cost. If you're in any doubt please do email me for further advice.
