Size Guide
Every piece is measured slightly differently. Use the section you need below. All figures are approximate — if you fall between two sizes, choose the larger one.
Before you measure
- Measure at the end of the day, when hands and wrists are at their largest.
- Use a flexible tape measure, or a thin strip of paper against a ruler. Avoid string — it stretches and reads short.
- Measure two or three times and take the average.
Ring size
How to measure
From a ring you own: measure the inside diameter across the centre in millimetres and match it to the table below.
From your finger: wrap a strip of paper around the base of the finger, mark where it overlaps, and measure that length in millimetres — that is your circumference.
[ Add image: measuring a ring's inside diameter ]
| US | UK | EU | Inside diameter | Inside circumference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | H½ | 47 | 14.9 mm | 46.8 mm |
| 5 | J½ | 49 | 15.7 mm | 49.3 mm |
| 6 | L½ | 51½ | 16.5 mm | 51.9 mm |
| 7 | N½ | 54 | 17.3 mm | 54.4 mm |
| 8 | P½ | 57 | 18.1 mm | 57.0 mm |
| 9 | R½ | 59 | 18.9 mm | 59.5 mm |
| 10 | T½ | 62 | 19.8 mm | 62.1 mm |
| 11 | V½ | 64½ | 20.6 mm | 64.6 mm |
| 12 | X½ | 67 | 21.4 mm | 67.2 mm |
Tip: for a wide band (2 mm or more), order a quarter to a half size up — wide bands fit more snugly.
Bracelet size
How to measure
Wrap a tape measure around your wrist just below the wrist bone, keeping it snug but not tight. That is your wrist measurement — then choose the fit you prefer.
[ Add image: measuring the wrist for a bracelet ]
| Wrist measurement | Snug fit | Comfort fit | Loose fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14 cm / 5.5" | 15 cm | 16 cm | 17 cm |
| 15 cm / 5.9" | 16 cm | 17 cm | 18 cm |
| 16 cm / 6.3" | 17 cm | 18 cm | 19 cm |
| 17 cm / 6.7" | 18 cm | 19 cm | 20 cm |
| 18 cm / 7.1" | 19 cm | 20 cm | 21 cm |
| 19 cm / 7.5" | 20 cm | 21 cm | 22 cm |
Bangles
A solid bangle has to pass over your hand. Bring your fingers together and tuck your thumb toward the base of your little finger, then measure around the widest part of your hand.
| Hand measurement | Bangle size | Inner diameter |
|---|---|---|
| 15–16 cm | Small | 60 mm |
| 17–18 cm | Medium | 63 mm |
| 19–20 cm | Large | 67 mm |
| 21–22 cm | X-Large | 70 mm |
Necklace & chain length
Measure a necklace you already like laid flat, or hold a tape measure against your neck and chest to see where each length falls.
[ Add image: necklace length diagram ]
| Length | Name | Where it sits |
|---|---|---|
| 35–37 cm / 14" | Choker | Snug around the base of the neck |
| 40–42 cm / 16" | Collar | At the base of the neck, on the collarbone |
| 45 cm / 18" | Princess | Just below the collarbone — the most popular length |
| 50–55 cm / 20–22" | Matinee | On the chest, below the collarbone |
| 60 cm / 24" | Opera | At or just below the neckline |
| 70–90 cm / 28–36" | Rope | Below the bust — can be doubled |
Layering: leave about 5 cm / 2" between each chain so they sit apart — for example 40 cm, 45 cm and 50 cm together.
Pendants
The chain length decides where the pendant hangs; the pendant then drops its own height below that point.
- Pick your chain length from the necklace table above.
- If the pendant is taller than about 3 cm, go one length shorter so it doesn't sit lower than you expect.
- Proportion: a finer chain and a pendant up to about 2 cm for a petite look; 2–3 cm for an everyday look; 3 cm and above with a bolder chain for a statement.
- Necklines: crew and high necks suit 45 cm and longer; with a V-neck, choose a pendant that sits at or just above the point of the V.

Earrings
Drop length is measured from the point where the earring meets your ear down to its lowest point.
| Style | Drop | Where it falls |
|---|---|---|
| Stud | 0 | On the earlobe |
| Huggie | ~1 cm | Hugs the lobe |
| Small drop | 2–3 cm | Just below the lobe |
| Mid drop | 4–5 cm | Mid-jaw |
| Long drop | 5–6 cm | At the jawline |
| Statement / chandelier | 6 cm+ | At or below the jawline |
Hoops
Hoop size is the outer diameter.
| Size | Outer diameter |
|---|---|
| Extra small | 8–12 mm |
| Small | 15–25 mm |
| Medium | 30–40 mm |
| Large | 45–60 mm |
| Oversized | 65 mm and above |
For all-day comfort, choose earrings under about 4 g each. For long drops and hoops over 40 mm, a lightweight hollow build sits better and pulls less on the lobe.

Still not sure?
Send us your measurements and the piece you're looking at, and we'll recommend a size. Contact us.
A ring should slide over your knuckle with a little resistance and then sit comfortably without spinning. Measure at home in two minutes, then find your size in the chart.
Quick pick
Between two sizes? Go up. A ring that is slightly loose is easier to live with than one that pinches.
Measure at home
All you need is a thin strip of paper and a ruler with millimetres. Measure at the end of the day, when your fingers are at their largest.
- Wrap the paper snugly around the base of your finger.
- Mark the point where the paper overlaps.
- Lay it flat and measure up to the mark in millimetres.
- Type that number into the size finder below.
Make sure the paper can still slide over your knuckle. If it can't, use the knuckle measurement instead.

Good to know
- Wide bands fit tighterBands wider than 6 mm cover more of the finger, so go up half a size.
- Mind the knuckleIf your knuckle is much wider than the base of your finger, choose a size that just slides over it.
- Temperature mattersFingers shrink in the cold and swell in the heat. Measure at room temperature.
- Dominant handFingers on your dominant hand are often slightly larger.
Questions, answered
Choose the larger size. For bands wider than 6 mm, consider going up another half size.
Measure at the end of the day at room temperature, then repeat two or three times for a reliable result.

A good bracelet fit is easy to forget: it moves with you without sliding off your hand or pinching at the clasp. Here's how to find it.
Quick pick
Not sure? 7" fits most wrists and is the safest choice for a gift.
Find your length
6.5"
Petite fit
Best for wrists up to 6 inches, with enough room for comfortable movement.
7"
Everyday fitMost loved
Our most popular bracelet length and the safest choice when buying a gift.
7.5"
Relaxed fit
Offers extra movement or a comfortable fit on a wrist around 7 inches.
Choosing a size
- Start with your wristMeasure where the bracelet will actually sit, just above the wrist bone.
- Decide on the feelClose to the skin, or loose with a little movement? It's personal, so go with what you like wearing.
- Allow for thicknessChunky and beaded styles feel smaller on the wrist, so go up about ½".
- Plan your stackMix lengths, for example 6.5" and 7", so each piece sits in its own place.
Measure at home
The quickest way: lay a bracelet you already own flat and measure it end to end, clasp included.
No bracelet? Use a soft tape, string or a strip of paper and follow the steps below.
- Wrap the string around your wrist where a bracelet would sit.
- Keep it snug. One finger should still slide underneath.
- Mark the overlap and measure it flat against a ruler.
- Measure again to double-check.
Your wrist measurement isn't your bracelet size. Use the table below to add a little room.
- Snug: wrist + ¼"
- Classic: wrist + ½"
- Relaxed: wrist + ¾" to 1"
Questions, answered
Add about 0.25 inches for a snug fit, 0.5 inches for a classic fit, or up to 1 inch for a relaxed fit.
A 7 inch bracelet fits many adult wrists. An adjustable style is the safest option when the wrist measurement is unknown.
Sizing a bangle
Bangles have no clasp, so they need to slip over your hand. Measure your hand, not your wrist.
- Tuck your thumb in towards your little finger, as if sliding a bangle on.
- Wrap a soft tape around the widest part of your hand.
- Add about ½" so it moves comfortably.
Already have a bangle that fits? Measure straight across the inside and compare.

The same chain can look delicate or dramatic depending on where it falls. Use this guide to see where each length lands, then measure at home to find yours.
Quick pick
Start with 18". It suits almost every neckline and layers easily with a shorter or longer chain.
Find your length
16"
Collarbone
Sits at the base of the neck and works well with open necklines.
18"
Everyday lengthMost loved
Falls just below the collarbone. Our most versatile length for pendants and gifting.
20"
Upper chest
Sits on the upper chest and layers cleanly below a 16 or 18 inch chain.
22"
Mid chest
A relaxed length that suits larger pendants and higher necklines.
24"
Long length
Falls lower on the chest for a more dramatic single chain or layered look.
Between two sizes? An extender adds a couple of inches to any chain, so you can wear it both ways.
Pendant necklaces
A pendant always hangs a little below its chain, because the chain length is measured without it. Choose the pendant size first, then pair it with a chain that lets it sit where you want it.
Petite
Up to 10 mm
A subtle sparkle that looks best on a fine 16 to 18 inch chain.
Classic
12 to 18 mmMost loved
Noticeable without feeling heavy. A balanced everyday pendant size.
Statement
20 mm and over
A bold focal point that pairs best with a stronger 20 to 22 inch chain.
Good to know
- Chain weight changes the fitThicker and beaded chains take up more room, so they sit higher than a fine chain of the same length.
- Pendants hang lowerWe measure the chain only, so the pendant itself will rest a little below the length you choose.
- Two lengths means adjustableA necklace listed as 16"–18" has a built-in extender, so it can be worn at either length.
- Layering?Space each chain about 2" apart so every layer stays visible and they tangle less.
Measure at home
Grab a necklace you already love and measure it. Then decide whether you want your new one shorter, longer or the same.
No necklace to hand? A length of string works just as well.
- Drape your necklace or string around your neck until it sits where you like it.
- Unclasp it or mark the string, then lay it out straight. Include the clasp in the length.
- Measure it against a ruler and pick the closest size.
All of our necklace lengths are measured in inches.
Questions, answered
18 inches is the most versatile choice. It usually sits just below the collarbone and works with most necklines.
Leave about 2 inches between each chain so every layer stays visible and tangling is reduced.

The chain length decides where the bail rests on your chest.
The pendant then hangs its own drop below that point.
Add the two together to find where the piece finishes.
With earrings, size means how far a piece drops below the piercing, or how wide a hoop is. Use this guide to picture each one before you choose.
Quick pick
For everyday wear, a 12 mm hoop or a small stud goes with everything, even with a hat or a scarf.
How each style sits
Stud
3 to 6 mm
Sits flush on the lobe for a minimal look and effortless all-day wear.
Huggie
8 to 12 mmMost loved
A close-fitting hoop that hugs the lobe and layers easily with studs.
Hoop
12 to 25 mm
A classic everyday hoop that finishes just below the earlobe.
Drop
25 to 50 mm
Creates visible movement and can fall from below the lobe to the jawline.
Hoop sizes
Good to know
- Second and third piercingsUpper and helix piercings suit studs and huggies of 8 mm or less.
- Weight mattersLonger drops look best in lighter pieces, so they don't pull on the lobe.
- Sensitive earsSolid gold posts and backs are the most comfortable for all-day wear.
- Mix sizesPair a larger hoop in the first piercing with smaller pieces above it.
Questions, answered
An 8 to 12 mm huggie stays close to the lobe. A 12 to 20 mm hoop gives a little more presence while remaining practical.
Measure from the point where the earring meets the ear to the lowest point of the design.
