inside: 17.3 mm = size N½
Choose a ring that fits the finger you're buying for.
Lay it flat and measure straight across the inside , edge to edge, at the widest point, in millimetres. Don't include the metal.
Enter the number above, or find it in the inside diameter column of the chart.

pen mark at 54.4 mm = size N½
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.
Mark where the paper meets with a pen.
Lay the strip flat on a ruler and read the length in millimetres.
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.
Tap a length to see roughly where it sits on an average adult. Each necklace's length is listed on its page.
Necklace length guide
35 cm Collar – close around the neck
40 cm Choker – at the base of the neck
45 cm Princess – on or just below the collarbone; a popular pendant length
50 cm Matinee – a few cm below the collarbone
55 cm Matinee – between collarbone and breastbone
60 cm Long matinee – at the top of the bust
70–86 cm Opera – at or below the bust; can be doubled

Médousa is a sterling silver ring styled as a snake, set with an oval cabochon of banded agate. The snake styling and the banded stone make it a ring with character.
Made for her, it is a statement piece for anyone who likes bold jewellery, and a memorable gift. Hand-picked by our founders in Thailand.

About Agate
Agate is a variety of chalcedony (microcrystalline quartz) known for colour patterns, usually flat or concentric bands, coloured by traces of iron, manganese and other metal oxides.
Hardness 6.5-7 (Mohs) Everyday wear Agates are remarkably durable and tough enough for most jewellery uses. Care As a chalcedony, agate needs no special care; clean it with mild detergent, warm water and a soft brush. Meaning and tradition In modern crystal guides, agate is associated with stability and grounding.
Meanings and traditions are beliefs people have held about these stones, not proven effects, and are no substitute for medical advice.
