Wedding Rings And Sizes

Wedding ring sizing has no single unit of measure. The size depends on which country’s measurement you use. Some are measured in millimetres, others in inches and still others alphabetically. Most countries use a numerical sizer with half sizes but the UK uses an alphabetical sizer from A to Z with half sizes in between. Most jewellers today will have charts for conversion to US, UK, French, German, Japanese, Swiss, and Australian sizes, among others. Conversional charts are also available extensively on the internet.

Sizing Wedding Rings

One of the most important factors to follow is for the wearer or future wearer of the wedding ring to actually have the ring sized by a professional ring sizer at a jeweller. These are numbered sizer rings in various sizes and half sizes that one can try on to see that the fit is perfect. The ring must fit tightly over the knuckles and slide down easily, so that it does not slip off. One important fact to remember is that when it is cold, the finger is a bit smaller and when it is hot the finger is a bit bigger. If one has had a very salty meal the previous night the finger will be a bit bigger. In case it is not possible to go to a jeweller, or the ring is a surprise, it may be best to measure the ring with a ribbon or tape the width of the ring itself and have it taken to a jeweller for sizing. It is important to have at least two weeks from purchase to wearing date, for any necessary alterations. Wedding rings, like shoes, need to be worn for a while to adjust to the feeling of it.
