Determining the right size of the ring is very important when purchasing it. This ensures comfortable wearing and proper positioning on the finger.

 

If the ring is too big, it can slip off the finger or constantly twist around it. If the size is too small, it will squeeze the finger, interfere with blood circulation, and cause discomfort.



The size of rings is measured differently in different countries, so there may be slight differences. The most common measurement systems are the American, British and European systems.


- In the United States and Canada, the American system is used, where the size of the ring is measured in inches or fractions.

- In the United Kingdom, the British system is used, where the size is indicated by letters (for example, F, H, I).

- In many European countries, including France, Germany, and Italy, the European system is used, where the size of the ring is indicated by numbers in millimeters. For example, size 52 corresponds to a circumference of 52 mm.



Therefore, when buying a ring in other countries, it is important to pay attention to the measurement system they use and determine your size correctly. This can be done with the help of size conversion tables provided by jewelry manufacturers and sellers, or by contacting specialists in a jewelry store who will help you determine the optimal size. There are also special finger gauges that can be used to determine the size yourself.


Remember that the size of the ring may vary depending on the design, width, and shape of the ring, so it is recommended that you try on the ring before buying to make sure it fits your finger and is the right size.



In Ukraine, a measurement system based on the diameter in millimeters is used to determine the size of a ring. Typically, rings are marked with numbers from 12 to 22, where each number corresponds to a specific size. For example, size 16 means a ring with a diameter of 16 mm or a finger circumference of 50.2 mm.


The Ukrainian ring size measurement system may be slightly different from the systems used in other countries. Therefore, if you are buying a ring abroad or in an online store from another country, you may need size conversion tables for easy comparison.

It is important to keep in mind that rings can have different widths and shapes, which can affect wearing comfort and sizing. Therefore, it is always better to try on a ring before buying to make sure it fits your finger perfectly and is the right size.
