RING SIZES

There are several ways to find out your size, some are more accurate than others.

OPTION 1: Go to a jewelry store and ask for a ring sizer . This is the most convenient and reliable way, as you can try on different sizes and see which one feels best (not too loose and not too tight). Then ask for the size and the diameter or circumference (or you can take a photo).

OPTION 2: MEASURE THE INSIDE DIAMETER OF A RING . This method is only suitable for making a ring for a specific finger (and serves as a reference for other fingers). You have to place the ring on a ruler and measure the inside diameter as shown in the image.

This ring has an inner diameter of 18.2mm

Once you have the measurement, you should compare it with the table below.
This table contains three pieces of information: first, the European size (which is also used in Chile); then the inner diameter of the ring; and finally, the US size. If you know your US size, you can easily convert it to the size we use here.

IMPORTANT

  • If you are between two sizes, it is advisable to choose the smaller one, since the procedure to increase by ONE size is less than to decrease it.
  • The ring should have some play or resistance so it doesn't slip off or feel loose. This can be achieved by placing it on your knuckle or finger.
  • One millimeter might not sound like much, but it represents three ring sizes, so accurate measurements are crucial. Changing a ring size incurs an additional cost because it needs to be remade.
  • Temperature affects the size of your fingers, and it's not uncommon for rings that fit well in winter to feel tight in summer or in the heat.
  • A person can have 10 different ring sizes (one for each finger), and your dominant hand is usually a little larger than your non-dominant hand. That's why it's important to know your ring size for different fingers.
  • When you wear wide rings (over 6mm), they are always larger than your normal ring size. So, if you wear a very thin ring and want to buy one wider than 6mm, you should go up a size. Conversely, if you wear a wide ring, go down a size for a thinner ring. The same applies if you plan to wear multiple rings on one finger; add a size to the other.

OPTION 3: THE RING IS A SURPRISE AND YOU DON'T HAVE A SIZE REFERENCE

We know that engagement or gift rings are often a surprise, and that there isn't always another ring to use as a reference for measuring the size. In those cases, we can help you make a rough estimate based on photographs or videos of the person's hands, ideally from different angles and with good lighting.

We can provide an estimated size that will get as close as possible to the actual measurement. However, this method does not guarantee absolute accuracy, so a subsequent size adjustment may be necessary.

Before making a purchase, we recommend checking if the chosen model allows for size modification and what the associated costs are, as some custom-made rings may incur additional charges for subsequent adjustments.

This alternative aims to help you minimize future modifications, but Arista Joyas is not responsible for differences between the estimated size and the person's actual final size.

OPTION 4: BUY A RING WAND HERE

The best tool to find out your size from home, without having to go to jewelry stores.
You should adjust it to your finger as the ring would fit and check the number indicated by the arrow (only half is visible). You will get the EU size; if you subtract 40, you get the size we use in Chile, as shown in the conversion chart below. If the ring you are buying is thin, we recommend subtracting one size.
