Buying silver jewellery online is quite a simple task; you select the piece you like, pay for it and wait for it to arrive.Buying a silver ring is slightly more complicated as, unless the ring is adjustable, you first have to determine the ring size of your finger. In the U.S. and Canada ring sizes are on a numbered scale while in Ireland, U.K. and Australia ring sizes are specified using an alphhabetical scale with half sizes.
The ideal way to measure your ring size is to visit a jeweller who will use steel ring sizers to accurately gauge the ring size of your finger. A method you can use at home is to cut a thin strip of paper and wrap it around the finger you wish to be sized underneath the second joint and knuckle. Make sure not to wrap the paper too tightly or the ring will not fit over the knuckle. Mark the spot where the paper meets with a pen or pencil and measure the distance with a ruler. This distance will give you the diameter of the ring required and you can then use one of the many online ring conversion websites to give you the relevant numeral or alphabetical sizes. All that’s left is to go ahead and buy your new silver jewellery.
