A perfect fit, found at home.
A piece that fits well is one you forget you are wearing. How to find your size at home for rings, bangles, bracelets and necklaces, and when it is better to let us measure you instead.
Sizing, simply
Not sure? We will measure you at our atelier.
01 · Rings
A ring should slide over the knuckle with a little resistance and sit comfortably at the base of the finger: secure enough not to turn or slip, never tight enough to leave a mark.
Find your size
Measured with a strip of paper, as described below.
Your Indian size
—
Between two sizes? Choose the larger.
At home, in four steps
I
Cut a thin strip of paper, or use non-stretch thread, about ten centimetres long.
II
Wrap it snugly around the base of the finger you are buying for. It should feel like a ring would, and still slide over your knuckle.
III
With a fine pen, mark exactly where the end of the strip meets the paper beneath it.
IV
Lay the strip flat on a ruler and read the length to your mark in millimetres. Enter it in the size finder above for your Indian, US and UK size.
One
The most accurate way, if you have a ring that fits the finger you are buying for.
Two
With a strip of paper or non-stretch thread, about ten centimetres long.
Three
For an engagement ring, or any piece that matters, a fitting is the surest way.
Fingers are smallest when cold and first thing in the morning. Measure later in the day, at room temperature, and on more than one day if you can.
If your knuckle is larger than the base of your finger, measure both and choose a size between, so the ring passes over the joint but does not spin.
A band wider than about 4 mm sits more snugly than a slim one. For wide bands and stacks, go up half to one size.
Your dominant hand is usually slightly larger. Measure the exact finger, on the exact hand, where the ring will be worn.

India size equals inside circumference minus 40 mm. International sizes are the nearest equivalent.
02 · Bangles
A rigid bangle has to pass over the widest part of your hand, so that is what you measure, not your wrist. Bangle sizes in India are given in inches and annas, sixteenths of an inch: 2-4 means two and four-sixteenths inches across.
Bring your thumb in towards your little finger, as if slipping a bangle on.
Wrap a soft tape around the hand across the knuckles, where it is widest, and note the length.
Measure straight across the inside, edge to edge. That inside diameter is your size in the chart.
From a hand measurement, divide by 3.14 to find the inside diameter you need, then choose the nearest size up.
2-4 and 2-6 are the most common sizes.
03 · Bracelets
Measure your wrist just above the wrist bone, where a bracelet sits, then add a little room for the fit you prefer.

Comfortable: 2 cm of room, for an easy everyday fit.
Your bracelet length
—
Tennis bracelets sit best with a close to comfortable fit, so the stones stay on top of the wrist.
Most women's bracelets are 16.5 to 18 cm; most men's, 19 to 20.5 cm.
04 · Necklaces
Necklace length is a matter of taste rather than fit. Choose a length below to see where it falls. On you it will vary a little with your height and build.
Drape a piece of string around your neck at the length you are considering and look in the mirror. It is the simplest way to see a length on yourself.
A pendant hangs below the chain, so it will sit a little lower than the length alone suggests.
Shorter lengths suit open and V-necklines; longer ones sit beautifully over high necks and knits.
Choose the larger. Fingers swell in warm weather and through the day, and a slightly loose ring is more comfortable than a tight one. For wide bands, go up half to one size.
They can be helpful, but screen and printer scaling make them less reliable than measuring a ring you own. For an important piece, we recommend a fitting.
Complimentary resizing in the first year. Many rings can be resized by a size or two. Eternity bands set with stones all the way around, and some intricate designs, cannot. Please ask us before ordering if you are unsure of the size.
Borrow a ring they already wear on the right finger and measure it, or draw around the inside of it on paper and send us a photograph with a ruler beside it. We are happy to help.
No. Indian sizes run from about 1 to 36, and each step is 1 mm of circumference. Use the chart above to convert.
It should pass over your hand with a little effort and move freely on the wrist without sliding far down the hand.
