A Guide to Determining your Ring Size
Have you fallen for one of our bejewelled artworks but are unsure of your ring size? When it comes to buying a ring, it’s important to get the correct size. Whether it’s a gift for yourself or a special surprise for a loved one, our expert consultants are here to lead the way to ensure you find the perfect fit. To help you get started, read our advice below.
Our Collingwood Flagship store is open Tuesday - Saturday from 10am to 5pm. Feel free to pop in for a quick visit to get your finger sized – no appointment necessary. If you don’t live locally, visit your closest fine jewellery specialist.
If you or your loved one have an existing ring that fits, measure the inside (internal) diameter of the ring – make sure you’re measuring across the centre or largest area of the circle. This means your measurement will not include the ring itself. You can also do this on the downlow by tracing the inside of their ring and then measuring the diameter.
If option 1 is not possible, you can purchase our easy to use ring sizer tool online. Simply follow the supplied instructions to determine your ring size. For all online ring purchases, we offer this ring sizer tool for free – just pop a note at checkout and we’ll send a complimentary sizer your way!
If you’d like to keep the ring a surprise, we recommend purchasing based on a standard sizing guide. For reference we generally craft our ready-to-ship pieces in sizes L and M. These sizes represent the average female ring size:
Small | Size K
Medium | Size N
Large | Size Q
Each Black Finch ring comes with one complimentary ring resize, so once gifted we can make sure you or your loved one are happy with the fit.

Variables
Your ring size can be a bit of a chameleon! It changes with your body temperature, the weather, how much salt or water you’ve had, and even your hormones. To find your perfect fit, try measuring your finger at different times of the day and average it out. Remember, your fingers might shrink a bit in winter and swell in summer, so keep those seasonal changes in mind when figuring out your size.
Band Thickness
The magic of your ring's fit can also depend on the band thickness. For bands 3mm or wider, you might need to go up half a size or even a full size. Most of our Black Finch engagement rings are approximately 2mm wide, which means they fit true to size. When you're getting sized, try using a ring with a similar width to the one you have your heart set on.
Resizing
If your ring isn’t quite fitting, don’t worry! We can usually resize it to perfection. However, if the size difference is quite big, we might need to work a little magic and remake the ring. At Black Finch, we generally resize rings up or down by no more than 2 sizes, ensuring your ring remains as charming as ever.
