Choosing a Finger:
Select the finger you intend to wear the ring on. Traditionally, the ring finger on the left hand is the most common choice.

Measuring Location:
Wrap the tape measure or string around the thickest part of your finger, which is usually below the knuckle, closer to your palm.

Measurement Method:

If using a tape measure: Read the value directly, accurate to the millimeter.

Recording Data:
Write down your measurement, in millimeters.

Repeat Measurements:
For accuracy, it’s recommended to repeat the measurement 2-3 times and take the average.

Consider Adjustments:

If your knuckle is significantly larger than the base of your finger, you may need to choose a slightly larger size.
Consider seasonal factors; your fingers may swell slightly in the summer.

The purpose is to give you a general estimation of your ring size for reference. This should not be regarded as an official recommendation from YSJEC Jewelers, and we cannot be held responsible if the ring size you select does not fit properly. There are numerous factors that can affect ring sizing, including subjective perceptions of fit, fluctuations in finger size throughout the day (yes, your finger size can vary between morning and night), and the fact that we only offer half sizes rather than quarter sizes, among other variables. Given these potential variances, we simply cannot account for every possible circumstance affecting ring fit.
