Ring Size Guide: How to Measure Your Ring Size with Mirea
Introduction
Choosing the right ring size is essential for comfort and style. Whether you’re shopping for a ring for yourself or selecting a gift, getting the size right ensures the ring feels as good as it looks. At Mirea, we know how important it is to find the perfect fit, so we’ve created this comprehensive guide to help you measure your ring size accurately. With a few easy steps, you’ll be able to find your size and shop with confidence.
Why Ring Size Matters
A well-fitting ring should slide on easily but resist slightly when coming off. A ring that’s too tight can be uncomfortable, while one that’s too loose may slip off unexpectedly. Getting the right size not only enhances the ring’s wearability but also ensures it lasts as a cherished piece for years to come.
How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home
Here are three simple methods to measure your ring size from the comfort of your home:
1. Measure a Ring You Already Own
If you have a ring that fits perfectly, you can use it as a reference. Here’s how:
- Gather Supplies: Find a ruler and the ring you want to measure.
- Measure the Diameter: Use the ruler to measure the distance across the inside of the ring, from one inner edge to the other (in millimeters).
- Match to a Size Chart: Use a ring size chart to determine your size based on the diameter measurement.
Tip: Ensure you’re measuring the inner edge accurately, as the outer edge will give an incorrect size.
2. Use a String or Strip of Paper
If you don’t have a ring to measure, you can determine your size using a string or strip of paper:
- Wrap Around Your Finger: Take a piece of string or a strip of paper and wrap it around the base of the finger where the ring will sit.
- Mark the Overlap: Mark the point where the string or paper overlaps.
- Measure the Length: Lay the string or paper flat and measure the length in millimeters using a ruler.
- Refer to a Size Chart: Match the length to a ring size chart to find your perfect size.
Tip: Ensure the string or paper is snug but not tight, as your ring should feel comfortable.
3. Use a Ring Sizer
The most accurate method is using a ring sizer, which you can purchase online or borrow from a jeweler:
- Choose a Size Ring: Place the ring sizer on your finger and adjust it until it fits snugly.
- Record the Size: Note the size indicated on the sizer, which corresponds to standard ring sizes.
Tip: If you’re shopping at Mirea, consider reaching out to our team to guide you in choosing the right size or acquiring a ring sizer.
Additional Tips for Measuring Ring Size
- Consider Finger Swelling: Fingers can swell slightly throughout the day or due to temperature changes. Measure your size in the evening, when your fingers are at their largest, for the most accurate result.
- Measure Both Hands: The size of your fingers can vary between hands, so ensure you measure the correct finger on the hand you’ll wear the ring.
- Double-Check: If possible, measure your ring size using two methods to confirm accuracy.

How to Adjust Your Ring Size
