The Definitive Ring Size Guide

Choosing the correct ring size is one of the most important decisions when commissioning fine jewellery. A ring should feel secure, balanced, and effortless — never tight, never loose.

This guide is designed to educate you properly, remove uncertainty, and ensure your MG ESSENCE piece fits exactly as intended.

How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home

You may think ring sizing is complicated — it isn’t, when done correctly. The key is precision and timing.

Method 1: Measure an Existing Ring

Place a ring that fits comfortably on a ruler and measure the inside diameter in millimeters. Match this measurement to the size chart below.

Method 2: Measure Your Finger

Wrap a thin strip of paper or string around the base of your finger. Mark where it overlaps, then measure the length in millimeters.

Professional Sizing Tips from MG ESSENCE

You may think sizing once is enough — but professionals know better.

• Measure at room temperature. Fingers swell in heat and shrink in cold.

• Measure at the end of the day. This reflects your finger’s natural size.

• Consider band width. Wider bands often require half a size larger.

• Engagement rings vs daily wear. Lifestyle affects fit.

If you are between sizes, we almost always recommend sizing up — comfort is luxury.

Bespoke Pieces & Final Adjustments

All MG ESSENCE pieces are crafted upon request. If your size is uncertain, we account for this during design and finishing.

Minor resizing is always possible — but our goal is perfection from the start.

When in doubt, our team will guide you personally.
