When choosing a ring, the size of the finger is of great importance. Especially when it is bought as a surprise. To ensure that the gift does not disappoint, you need to know how to determine the size of the finger for the ring.
Instructions
Step 1
The easiest option is to use special probes that are available from jewelry stores. With their help, it is quite easy to determine the exact size, and on its basis, choose the models you like.
Step 2
You can also measure the diameter of an existing ring that suits you or the person you want to give a gift to. For example, if the diameter is 16.5 mm, then your size is 16.5.
Step 3
However, sometimes there are situations when the ring is not with you, but you need to find out the size of your finger. An ordinary thread will help to get out of this situation. Simply wrap it around your finger and then cut where the ends meet. The resulting length is the girth of the finger, it is enough to divide it by 3, 14 to get the diameter.
Step 4
If you want to give the ring to another person, you can use the help of friends and acquaintances. They can tell you which ring finger size is best.
Step 5
The latter method is only suitable if your fingers are larger than those of the person to whom you are going to give a gift. During the conversation as a joke, try trying on his ring, and then remember where it got to (you can even make a note). This will allow you to at least roughly know the size of the finger for the ring.
