Ring sizes
If you are between two sizes, choose the larger.
Measuring at home
- Wrap a strip of paper or thin string snugly around the base of the finger you will wear the ring on.
- Mark where it meets itself, lay it flat and measure the length in millimetres.
- Find that measurement in the circumference column.
- If you already own a ring that fits, measure its inside diameter in millimetres and use the diameter column instead.

Bracelets and bangles
Bracelet and bangle sizes
Bangles and cuffs should fit snugly; chain bracelets need a little movement. Measure where you want the piece to sit.
Measuring at home
- Wrap a strip of paper or string around your wrist where the piece will sit.
- Mark where it meets itself and measure the length in millimetres. This is your wrist circumference.
- For a bangle, add 10 to 15 mm for comfort, then find the nearest circumference below.
| Indian | Western | Circumference mm | Inches | Diameter mm | Inches |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-2 | XS | 169.7 | 6.68 | 54.0 | 2.12 |
| 2-4 | S | 179.6 | 7.07 | 57.2 | 2.25 |
| 2-6 | S/M | 189.5 | 7.46 | 60.3 | 2.37 |
| 2-8 | M | 199.4 | 7.85 | 63.5 | 2.50 |
| 2-10 | M/L | 209.3 | 8.24 | 66.7 | 2.62 |
| 2-12 | L | 219.5 | 8.64 | 69.9 | 2.75 |
| 2-14 | L/XL | 229.4 | 9.03 | 73.0 | 2.87 |
| 3 | XL | 239.3 | 9.42 | 76.3 | 3.00 |
Western equivalents are general guidance only.
Necklaces
Necklace and chain lengths
Length decides where a necklace sits. Allow for the drop of a pendant, and vary layered lengths by 5 to 7 cm so each piece reads on its own.
| Length | Centimetres | Inches | Where it sits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Choker | 35 to 40 | 14 to 16 | At the base of the neck. For open and off-shoulder necklines |
| Princess | 43 to 48 | 17 to 19 | Just below the collarbone. The most versatile length |
| Matinee | 50 to 60 | 20 to 24 | At or just above the bust. For layering and higher necklines |
| Opera | 70 to 90 | 28 to 36 | Below the bust. Worn long or doubled |
| Rope | 100 and above | 40 and above | Looped, knotted or draped |
