Fit Guide
Ring, Bracelet & Necklace Sizing
A piece that is meant to be worn for generations should fit perfectly from the first day. Use this guide to measure at home, or book a consultation and we'll take your measurements ourselves.
Ring Sizing
The most accurate way to size a ring is in person during your consultation — but if you're ordering remotely or gifting a surprise, here's how to get it right.
A
String or Paper Strip
Wrap a strip of paper or string snugly around the base of the finger. Mark where it overlaps, then measure the length in millimetres — this is the circumference.
B
Measure an Existing Ring
Take a ring that already fits the intended finger well and measure its inner diameter in millimetres with a ruler.
C
Best of All: In-Studio
Bring the wearer (or a well-fitting ring) to a consultation, and we'll size it precisely with a jeweller's mandrel.
Timing matters: Fingers swell slightly in heat and shrink in cold. Measure at the end of the day, when hands are warm, for the truest everyday size. If the ring has a wide band, size up by a quarter size for comfort.

Bracelet & Bangle Sizing
Bracelets are measured differently from bangles — one wraps and clasps, the other must slide over the hand.
Bracelets (Clasped)
1
Measure the Wrist
Wrap a soft tape (or string, then a ruler) snugly around the wrist, just past the wrist bone.
2
Choose Your Fit
Add ease depending on how you like it to sit — snug, comfortable, or loose.
3
Match to Chart
Use the wrist measurement and desired fit to find your bracelet length below.
| Wrist Measurement | Size | Recommended Bracelet Length |
|---|---|---|
| 5.5 – 6 in (14 – 15 cm) | XS | 6 – 6.5 in (15 – 16.5 cm) |
| 6 – 6.5 in (15 – 16.5 cm) | S | 6.5 – 7 in (16.5 – 18 cm) |
| 6.5 – 7 in (16.5 – 18 cm) | M | 7 – 7.5 in (18 – 19 cm) |
| 7 – 7.5 in (18 – 19 cm) | L | 7.5 – 8 in (19 – 20.5 cm) |
| 7.5 – 8 in (19 – 20.5 cm) | XL | 8 – 8.5 in (20.5 – 21.5 cm) |
Rule of thumb: add ½ in (1.25 cm) to your wrist measurement for a snug fit, ¾–1 in (2–2.5 cm) for a comfortable everyday fit, and 1.25 in+ (3 cm+) for a loose, statement drape.
Bangles (Rigid, Slide-On)
Because a bangle must pass over the widest part of the hand, measure across the knuckles (thumb tucked in) rather than the wrist alone.
| Hand Circumference | Size | Bangle Inner Diameter |
|---|---|---|
| up to 7.5 in (19 cm) | Small | 2.4 – 2.5 in (61 – 64 mm) |
| 7.5 – 8 in (19 – 20.5 cm) | Medium | 2.5 – 2.65 in (64 – 67 mm) |
| 8 – 8.5 in (20.5 – 21.5 cm) | Large | 2.65 – 2.8 in (67 – 71 mm) |
| 8.5 in+ (21.5 cm+) | X-Large | 2.8 in+ (71 mm+) |
Necklace Length Guide
Necklace "size" is really about where the piece falls on the body. Use this chart to choose a length for a single piece, or to plan a layered look.
| Length Name | Approx. Size | Where It Sits |
|---|---|---|
| Collar | 12 – 13 in (30 – 33 cm) | Tight at the base of the neck |
| Choker | 14 – 16 in (35 – 41 cm) | Around the neck |
| Princess | 17 – 19 in (43 – 48 cm) | At or just below the collarbone |
| Matinee | 20 – 24 in (51 – 61 cm) | Just above the bust |
| Opera | 28 – 36 in (71 – 91 cm) | Below the bust, near the sternum |
| Rope / Lariat | 36 in+ (91 cm+) | Waist, or doubled/knotted for versatility |
Layering tip: when stacking pendants or strands, leave at least 2 in (5 cm) between each length so every piece is visible — for example, a 14", 18", and 24" strand worn together. See our full Neckline & Necklace Pairing Guide for outfit-specific recommendations.
General Sizing Tips
✦
Measure Twice
Take each measurement two or three times and use the average — small errors compound on delicate coral and pearl work.
✦
Consider the Piece
Wide bands, layered coral collars, and heavier bangles all wear tighter than their measurement suggests — size up slightly.
✦
Gifting Someone Else?
Borrow a well-fitting ring, bracelet, or necklace they already own to measure, rather than guessing.
✦
Bespoke Means Exact
Every high jewellery and bridal commission includes an in-person or guided sizing session — nothing leaves the atelier until the fit is right.
"Fit is the first act of care a piece shows the person who will carry it forward."
