Enter your measurement

1 Measure a ring you already own
1. Choose a ring that fits the finger you're buying for.
2. Lay it flat and measure straight across the inside, edge to edge, at the widest point, in millimetres. Don't include the metal.
3. Enter the number above, or find it in the inside diameter column of the chart.
2 Measure your finger
1. Wrap a thin strip of paper around the base of your finger, where the ring will sit. It should be snug, but still slide over your knuckle.
2. Mark where the paper meets with a pen.
3. Lay the strip flat on a ruler and read the length in millimetres.
4. Enter the number above (choose "around your finger"), or find it in the inside circumference column.
- Measure at the end of the day, when your fingers are warm and slightly larger.
- If your knuckle is wider than the base of your finger, measure both and choose a size in between.
- Between two sizes? Choose the larger one, especially for wide bands.
- Paper is better than string, which stretches. Measure two or three times.
3 Print our ring sizer

A finger strip and ring circles on two A4 pages.

Check before you measure: printers often shrink pages to fit, which gives the wrong size. Print at 100% / Actual size with "Fit to page" off, then measure the check lines on the sheet with a ruler. Each must be exactly 80 mm; if not, print again.

Bracelets

Measure your wrist just above the wrist bone with a soft tape, or with a strip of paper and a ruler.
Add to that measurement for the fit you like:

Fit	Add to your wrist	Example: 15 cm wrist
Snug	+1.5 cm	16.5 cm bracelet
Comfort	+2 cm	17 cm bracelet
Loose	+3 cm	18 cm bracelet

Each bracelet's length is listed on its page.

Bangles

A closed bangle has to pass over your hand. Bring your thumb towards your little finger, as if putting on a bangle, and measure around the widest part of your hand. Choose a bangle 1–2 cm larger, or compare the inside diameter of a bangle that already fits. Cuffs and open bangles are sized by the wrist, like bracelets.

The details

Metal: Sterling Silver
Gemstone: Opal
Origin: Thailand

About Opal

Opal forms from silica left behind in rock by evaporating water. Precious opal shows flashes of rainbow colour ('play-of-colour') because it is made of tiny stacked spheres that split light into spectral colours.

Birthstone: October
Hardness: 5–6.5 (Mohs)
Everyday wear: Opal is soft with very poor to fair toughness, so it scratches easily and is best in earrings and pendants, or in rings with a protective setting and occasional wear.
Care: Warm, soapy water is the only safe way to clean opal. Avoid ultrasonic and steam cleaners, high heat, sudden temperature changes and strong light.
Meaning and tradition: The Romans saw opal as a symbol of love and hope, and in European tradition it stood for hope, purity and truth; because it shows every colour, it was long regarded as the luckiest gem. The idea that opal is unlucky comes from a 19th-century novel, not ancient belief, and opal is the gem for 14th wedding anniversaries.

Meanings and traditions are beliefs people have held about these stones, not proven effects, and are no substitute for medical advice.
