How
to establish the correct ring size
To
ensure a comfortable and safe fit a ring must be the correct
size for the wearer. This is achieve by using an established table of
ring sizes from which the correct size is selected and then the
ring is made or resized to that size.
If
the ring is for a gift then having the correct size will ensure
that the surprise is a magical moment that will never be forgotten.
And with a little planning, it can come off brilliantly.
Finding a person's
ring size without their knowing is not as difficult as you might
think. Here are some solutions to getting the persons' ring size
while keeping your gift a surprise. Keep in mind that the ring
size will vary for each finger.
- Bring one
of their rings into our store without arousing any suspicion.
Offer to take their jewellery to be cleaned and when you bring
it in we will measure it at the same time.
- Make an impression
of an existing ring which you know fits the desired finger.
A bar of soap or a piece of clay can be used to take a reliable
measurement.
- Trace the
inside of the ring on a piece of paper.
- Put one of
their rings on your own finger. Push it down as far as it will
go and then mark the spot with a pen. Then just show us the
marking and we can measure it for you.
