• Wrap the piece of wire or string around the finger where the ring will be worn, making sure it’s not too tight or too loose.
• Find the exact place where the wire or string completes the circle around your finger then use a marker to draw a line to mark the spot.
• To find the inner circumference of the ring, measure the “completed circle” piece of the wire or string with a ruler (in mm).
• Use the engagement ring size guide to convert the inner circumference measurements to your ideal ring size.
