Size Guide

Find your perfect fit before you buy — simple measuring methods for rings, bracelets, and necklaces.

Ring Sizing

Find Your Ring Size

Ring sizing in the US runs from size 3 to 13, including half sizes. The average woman's ring size is 6–7, and the average man's is 9–10. Not sure? We recommend measuring twice and sizing up a half size if you're between sizes.

01
String Method
Wrap a thin strip of paper or non-stretchy string around your finger. Mark where it overlaps, then measure that length with a ruler in millimeters. Use the chart below to find your size.
02
Existing Ring
Place a ring that fits well flat on a ruler. Measure the inside diameter in millimeters. Match it to the diameter column in the chart below.
03
Visit a Jeweler
Any local jewelry store can measure your finger with a ring sizer tool in about 60 seconds — free of charge. This is the most accurate method.

Best time to measure: Fingers are slightly larger in the evening and when warm. Avoid measuring first thing in the morning or when cold. If your knuckle is significantly larger than your finger base, size for the knuckle and use a ring guard to secure the fit.

Bracelet Sizing

Find Your Bracelet Size

Bracelet sizing is based on wrist circumference plus a comfort allowance. A snug fit adds about 1 cm, a standard fit adds 1.5–2 cm, and a loose fit adds 2.5–3 cm to your wrist measurement.

01
Measure Your Wrist
Wrap a flexible measuring tape or a strip of paper snugly around your wrist just below the wrist bone. Note the measurement in centimeters.
02
Add Comfort Allowance
For a classic fit, add 1.5 cm to your wrist measurement. For a looser, layered look, add 2.5 cm. Use the chart below to find your size.
03
Check the Product Listing
Each bracelet listing shows its exact length. If your wrist falls between sizes and the bracelet has no extender chain, choose the larger size.
Size Wrist Circumference Bracelet Length (Standard Fit) Best For
XS 13–14 cm 15 cm / 6" Petite wrists
S 14–15 cm 16 cm / 6.3" Small wrists
M 15–17 cm 18 cm / 7" Average wrists (most common)
L 17–18 cm 19 cm / 7.5" Larger wrists
XL 18–19 cm 20 cm / 7.9" Extended fit

Layering tip: If you plan to stack bracelets, size up by 0.5–1 cm for each additional piece to keep the look comfortable and intentional.

Necklace Sizing

Find Your Necklace Length

Necklace length determines where the pendant or chain falls on your body. The right length depends on your neckline, personal style, and whether you plan to layer. Use the guide below to visualize how each length will sit.

14" Collar 16" Choker 18" Princess 20" Matinee 24" Opera 30" Rope

14" Collar — Sits at the base of the neck. Best for high necklines and statement pieces.

16" Choker — Rests just below the collarbone. The most popular length for pendants.

18" Princess — Falls at or just below the collarbone. The most versatile and universally flattering length.

20" Matinee — Sits between the collarbone and bust. Great for V-necks and layering.

24" Opera — Falls at the bust. Elegant and dramatic, ideal for formal wear.

30" Rope — Falls below the bust. Can be doubled for a layered look.

Length Name Where It Falls Best With
14" Collar Base of neck High necklines, turtlenecks
16" Choker Just below collarbone Scoop necks, pendants
18" Princess At / just below collarbone Most necklines — most versatile
20" Matinee Between collarbone & bust V-necks, layering
24" Opera At the bust Formal wear, evening looks
30" Rope Below the bust Casual, bohemian, layering

Layering tip: For a curated layered look, combine necklaces that differ by at least 2" in length. A 16" + 18" + 22" combination is a classic starter set.

General Advice

Fit Tips & FAQs

A few things worth knowing before you buy.

Between Sizes?
Always size up for rings. A slightly loose ring is easier to adjust than one that won't go over your knuckle. For bracelets, choose the larger size and use an extender if needed.
Wide Bands
Wide ring bands (over 6mm) fit tighter than narrow ones. If you're ordering a wide band, go up half a size from your normal measurement.
