FIRST THINGS FIRST:
- Fingers naturally change size slightly throughout the day. I recommend checking your size towards the end of the day, while at a comfortable temperature
- The ideal size should be loose enough to slip over your knuckles, but tight enough to not fall off. You should feel slight resistance when pulling the ring off, while not being difficult to put on and take off
- Don't rush your sizing and mindfully consider how the fit feels. Make hand movements such as a fist, practice taking the ring off and on, carefully try flicking your hand to see if it would fall off, etc.
- Wide bands will fit slightly tighter than slim bands of the same size. At Expression Obsession, I will account for any extra surface area on designs for you. Please do not attempt to size up yourself when ordering wide bands — always order in your standard ring size. See the “WIDE BANDS” section on this page for more information
HOW TO FIND YOUR SIZE:
1. Get Professionally Measured:
The best way to find your ring size will always be to go to local jeweller and get yourself professionally measured. Although many jewellers will do it for free, it may be courteous to offer a small payment for their time. Ensure the ring band that the jeweller measures you with is no wider than 5mm.
2. Order a Ring Sizer:
Second best option is to measure yourself with a ring sizer from Expression Obsession. Please email or Instagram DM to be mailed a ring sizer, free with any purchase, or for a small fee.
3. Measure a Current Ring:
If the above two options aren't feasible for whatever reason, you can measure the diameter of a current ring to find the size of that ring. Measure the diameter of the inside of the ring (longest internal distance), and use the chart below to find the circumference and size of the ring. Remember, since wide bands will fit tighter, if the band you measure with is over 5mm wide, you may need do go down a 1/4 US size to get your standard ring size.
4. Measure Yourself:
Expression Obsession does not recommend that you attempt to measure yourself with a string or paper as it leaves too much room for error. Resizing can be expensive, and some rings are not able to be resized at all. Currently, Expression Obsession does not offer resizing.
WIDE BANDS (5MM+):
Since wider bands cover more surface area on your finger, a wide ring will feel slightly tighter than a slimmer ring of the same size. Expression Obsession rings are always listed by the size the ring will feel, regardless of the design and band width. For example, if a wide ring is ordered in a size 5, the ring will be made slightly larger than a size 5 so that it will fit on a size 5 finger.
Please don't hestitate to reach out with any questions or concerns regarding ring sizing. Always happy to chat!
