How to Measure Your Rings Size
Wrap a thin strip of paper or a flexible measuring tape around the base of the finger you plan to wear the ring on. Mark where the strip overlaps, then measure the length in millimetres — that is your inner circumference. Alternatively, measure the inner diameter of a ring that already fits well. Measure at the end of the day when fingers are slightly swollen, and try the widest knuckle the ring must pass over.
Understanding US and CN Sizing
The US sizing system is the standard in the United States and is used by most American brands. US sizes are typically numbered and can differ significantly from European or Asian systems. Most US retailers display sizes prominently on labels and online, but the underlying measurements (in inches or centimetres) vary between brands, so treating US sizes as approximate is safest.
Chinese (CN) ring sizes use a numbered system based on the inner circumference of the ring in millimetres. The CN scale differs from US, UK, and EU ring sizing, so direct number comparisons will give the wrong fit. Always convert using a reliable chart and, if possible, have your finger measured by a jeweller.
Tips for Converting Unisex Rings Sizes
Chinese ring sizes are numbered differently from US sizes. A US 7 is approximately a CN 14. Always double-check with a circumference measurement when ordering from Chinese jewellers.
Ring size can change with temperature, time of day, and hydration level. Measure at the end of the day in a warm room for the most representative result.
If you are buying a surprise ring (for an engagement, for example), try to borrow one of the recipient's existing rings and measure its inner diameter — this is more reliable than guessing.
Wide-band rings (over 6 mm) feel tighter than narrow-band rings of the same size. Consider going up half a size for comfort if choosing a wider band.
