Ring Width Advice

What Does It Look Like?


Ring width is measured in millimeters, which can be hard to visualize for those of us accustomed to inches. Unsure of how wide of a ring to order? We can send you sizing rings in different widths to try on.

If you don't have a metric ruler around, you can stack pennies and nickels together to approximate how narrow or wide you want your ring to be.
