Please note:

Engraved rings, rings with altered stone settings, and rings specially made for you are excluded from return and exchange. You are welcome to have the rings sent to you beforehand for a fitting. In the case of subsequent engraving, we will only charge the additional shipping costs.

Methods to determine your ring size

There are several proven methods you can use to reliably determine your ring size. We present the most common ones here:

1. Measuring with an existing, well-fitting ring

The simplest method is to measure an existing ring that fits you or your loved one perfectly. Please note that the ring should have a similar width and shape to your desired ring.

Step 1: Take a well-fitting ring.

Step 2: Using calipers, measure the inner diameter of the ring in millimeters (see images above).

Step 3: Multiply the measured value by 3.14 (Pi) to obtain the inner circumference. This value corresponds to your German ring size. (Example: 17.2 mm diameter x 3.14 = 54 mm circumference = ring size 54).

2. Measuring with a Thread or Strip of Paper

If you don't have a suitable ring to compare to, you can determine your ring size by directly measuring the circumference of your finger. Please note that this method may be less accurate and is not recommended.

Step 1: Wrap a thread or a narrow strip of paper snugly, but not too tightly, around the widest part of your finger (usually the knuckle).

Step 2: Mark the point where the end of the thread or paper overlaps the rest.

Step 3: Lay the thread or paper strip flat and measure the length to the mark with a ruler. The result in millimeters is your ring size.

3. Professional Measurement with the Multisizer

As an excellent guide, we recommend using a multisizer. This professional measuring tool works like a small belt for your finger and allows you to determine your ring size very accurately. The multisizer is available in our online shop and is the ideal choice to ensure maximum security when ordering.

Important Tips for Accurate Measurement

Consider the time of day: It's best to measure your fingers in the afternoon or evening, as they can swell slightly throughout the day.

Consider the temperature: Fingers contract in cold weather and expand in hot weather. Measure at normal room temperature.

Band width: Wider rings often require half a size to a full size larger than narrower rings. Keep this in mind when making your selection.

Right or left hand: The fingers of the dominant hand are often slightly thicker. Measure the finger on which you intend to wear the ring.

If you have no experience with rings, we strongly recommend having your ring size determined by a jeweler. We advise against using a printable template or measuring old rings with a ruler.
