Ring Sizing Guide
Choosing the correct ring size is one of the most important steps when ordering a handmade ring. Because each Hileman Inlay Jewelry ring is made to order, taking a few minutes to confirm your size will ensure the best possible fit and long‑term comfort.
Why Accurate Ring Sizing Matters
Inlay rings are crafted with stones set flush into the metal for durability and comfort. Unlike many traditional rings, resizing an inlay ring is not always simple or possible, depending on the design. Confirming your size before ordering helps avoid delays and ensures your ring fits exactly as intended.
The Best Way to Find Your Ring Size
Visit a Local Jeweler (Recommended)
The most accurate way to determine your ring size is to visit a local jewelry store and ask for a professional ring sizing. This method accounts for finger shape, knuckle size, and fit preferences.
Tips:
-
Ask to be sized for the finger you plan to wear the ring on
-
Use a standard ring sizer - not a comfort fit sizer
-
Make sure the ring sizer slides over the knuckle comfortably
-
The ring should feel snug but not tight
Measuring at Home (Alternative Method)
If visiting a jeweler isn’t possible, you can measure your ring size at home.
Method 1: Purchase a Ring Sizer Measuring Tool
-
Purchase your own set of ring sizers from Amazon.com or Walmart.com (can be purchased for under $10)
-
Try to use sizers that are similar in width to the ring you intend to purchase
-
Find the sizer that fits most comfortably on your finger and write down the size
Tip: Measure at the end of the day when fingers are at their largest.
Method 2: Purchase a Ring Mandrel Sizing Stick
-
Purchase your own ring mandrel on Amazon or Walmart.com
-
Measure an existing ring that fits on the finger your new ring will call home
-
Write down your size
Tip: Sending us a ring that fits the finger you will wear the new ring on is a great option! We can measure it and get your exact size.
Comfort Fit vs Standard Fit
Our inlay rings have a standard fit interior, meaning the inside of the band is fairly flat with slightly rounded edges. Standard fit rings fit true to size while comfort fit rings may feel looser than standard fit rings of the same size. Make sure to be sized with a standard fit sizer- not a comfort fit sizer. If you are between sizes or unsure, professional sizing is strongly recommended.
Seasonal & Lifestyle Factors
Finger size can change throughout the day and year due to:
-
Temperature (fingers swell in heat, shrink in cold)
-
Physical activity
-
Hydration levels
For best results:
-
Avoid sizing early in the morning
-
Avoid sizing when hands are cold
What If I’m Between Sizes?
If you find yourself between two sizes:
-
Choose the larger size for wider bands
-
Choose the smaller size for narrow bands
-
We offer 1/4 sizes if you are between the full and half size options
