The reasons for buying rings can be different, but before that, many people have a question about how to measure the size of the ring. There are several ways that will be discussed below.
In order not to torment yourself with the question of how to measure the size of the ring, just go to the nearest jewelry workshop and ask to determine your size. If you want to learn how to do it yourself, remember one rule, which says that the diameter of the finger is the size of the ring. Therefore, when buying jewelry on the Internet, where you cannot measure the product, just take the ring you already have and measure its diameter. If the diameter of the ring is 20 mm, then its size will be 20.
Another way to measure the size of a ring, more complicated but much more accurate, is to use an ordinary thread. From the lessons of geometry, we know that to determine the diameter of a circle, it is necessary to divide its length by pi. To determine the circumference of the finger, we make 10 turns of thread around it. Then we measure the length of the thread and divide it by 3, 14 (pi), then another 10.
Buying jewelry forabroad, note the differences between the scales in different countries. Ring sizes in Europe correspond to the length of the inner circumference of the ring. To determine the size we are used to in Russia, we need to multiply the American size of the ring by 0.83 and add 11.50 to the resulting value. The Japanese size must be divided by 3 and add 12.67.
To correctly measure your ring size, consider the following conditions:
1. The measurement will be made with a greater error if you measure the size of the ring in extreme heat or cold. In hot weather, the size will be much larger than the real one, especially if a person is prone to swelling. Measurements at very low temperatures will mean that the ring will simply not fit you at a comfortable temperature.
2. When you are very excited, and also after intensive sports, you should not take measurements, as the fluid accumulated in the body will create an extra error.
3. More accurate data can be obtained by measuring the size of the ring during the day.
4. Consider what kind of ring you are going to buy. If its width is more than 8 mm, then the size of the ring is increased by at least a quarter.
5. Purchasing a ring a little larger than your size will give you a small margin so it won't weigh you down in hot weather. At the same time, the stock should not be too large so as not to lose the jewel in the cold.
6. On the right and left hand, the sizes of the fingers may differ. Therefore, measure the fingers of the hand on which you are going to wear the rings.
Here are easy ways to measure your ring size at home.
Knowing the size of the ring is important if you decide to surprise your girlfriend. It is enough to quietly take her ring and apply the above method. You will only have to accept her gratitude and surprise at how you accurately guessed with her size.
Choosing the ring size is a very responsible matter, as precious jewelry is quite expensive, and it is not always possible to return them to the store later.
