How to Choose the Right Ring?

This is a common question asked by customers. First, you need to decide which finger the ring is for. This will determine the size of the accessory.

Rings have long been considered the main piece of jewelry. It is believed that they say something about their owner, such as family and financial well-being, taste, and creative abilities. Rings can be paired with any outfit, both daytime and evening. They not only accentuate the beauty of the hand and fingers but also structure and decorate the owner's outfit.

Our online store has been selling jewelry for many years. We offer fast and reliable delivery of products to any location in Ukraine.

Before ordering jewelry, we recommend reading expert advice. Our specialists have compiled this detailed article to help you choose the right ring.

Ring Size Recommendations

The size varies based on individual characteristics, particularly the circumference of the finger. To measure it, wrap a piece of wire, thread, or a thin strip of paper around your finger. Then, measure the resulting circle in millimeters. The width of the circle will correspond to the size (if you get an imprecise number, round it to the nearest whole number or tenth). Stores usually have size charts, but it’s still best to measure your finger beforehand to avoid confusion.

Even more reliable – go to a jewelry store and determine your size with a ring sizer.

Purpose of the Purchase

Before ordering original rings with delivery, you need to clarify the purpose of the purchase. When you come to the store for a new item, it is important not only to know its size but also to understand why you want to buy this accessory. Is it a simple ring for parties? An engagement ring? Or perhaps you want to buy a signet ring combined with precious stones?

Standard wedding rings (without precious stones) can be chosen by size, and if necessary, “changed.” In addition, future lovers can use them to engrave names. This is done by engraving the initials of the groom and bride inside the rings. Women’s wedding rings are often adorned with small precious stones. Wedding rings are generally less compact, with some containing very large stones. The design of wedding jewelry is limited only by the buyer's imagination. Any customer’s whim can be realized. However, even in this case, the precious stone plays a significant role in the decoration. This applies to all signet rings.

It is also important to decide on the color of the piece. They can be rings made of white gold, as well as analogs made of pure gold.

At the same time, some people prefer silver pieces, which are also used for making wedding rings. Silver, like gold, is very popular among buyers. It should be noted that silver requires special care as it may tarnish and lose its properties.

Which Stone to Choose for a Ring

This is one of the most important factors to pay attention to when purchasing a ring. Usually, jewelry is decorated with the following stones:

• Diamond. Typically chosen for engagement rings. Due to its shading (usually white), rings with diamonds are ideal for weddings. A diamond is also suitable for regular signet rings. The size of the stone here can be larger, and the shape – any (for example, shaped like beautiful, floral petals).
• Sapphire. A dull-blue precious stone that is especially beautiful in a gold setting. During production, the sapphire is carefully set into a gold ring and becomes the main decoration on your finger;
• Topaz. Topaz is usually white. However, it can be made to glow in various shades – from blue and green to yellow and pink. This allows for creating unique and unusual rings for a wide range of events;
• Emerald. Due to its stunning bright green hue, it is considered perhaps the most beautiful stone. Its cost remains high. A few emeralds may be more expensive than an entire diamond. It is popularly known as the “famous” stone (there are many legends about it). Thus, emeralds are perfect for expensive gold rings that can be worn for any occasion, whether it's a party or a serious business meeting.

What Width of Ring to Choose

How to choose the right ring width? If you need to pick a ring for a wedding, it's best to measure the thickness of the ring in advance: narrow (up to 5 mm), medium (from 5 to 7 mm), or wide (more than 8 mm).

For a wide hand, thick fingers, and large joints are characteristic. For long fingers, any ring width is suitable. Wide models are good for pinky fingers, accentuating the style of the hand.

If you like thin and neat rings, be cautious while wearing them. Such a piece, even of high quality, is very easy to spoil and bend.

What if your couple is an example of opposite characteristics, and your hands don’t match? Again, we recommend combining double-welded rings of medium and large sizes. To create the perfect pair, you need to measure suitable wedding items.

Ring Surface Types

Much time and effort are devoted to processing the ring's surface. And this is not surprising! The surface of the piece determines its final design! The surface gives the decoration a special look, conveying the individuality of its owner. This treatment is unique and has a huge number of refinements. Surface creation and processing is a complex mechanical interaction, but thanks to modern equipment, a jeweler can satisfy their customers with a wide selection of finished models.

• Glossy surface. Smooth, carefully polished wedding rings – this is what our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents were used to. These models are resistant to damage and scratches. They retain their properties even after decades!
• Satin surface. Named after the word “silk.” Subsequently, the surface received this name. Satin gives softness and smoothness along with a bright shine. Like glossy surfaces, it has clearly defined cross lines. Glossy satin treatment feels pleasant to the touch. This surface treatment has won the hearts of customers. Many buyers love wearing rings with satin surfaces and recommend such items to their friends.
• Matte surface. This surface is treated with special brushes. The surface is flatter and feels rigid to the touch. Scratches are absent.

Choosing a Ring Based on Finger Shape

If you have thin and long fingers, like a pianist's fingers. You're partly lucky. Thin fingers are a real pride, a gift from Mother Nature. A young lady with this type of finger can buy almost any type of ring: from jewelry ceramic to huge stones. Any design will be suitable. Stones of any cut will look great on your hand. You can freely play with proportions, wear several rings at once, and still look elegant, stylish, and impressive.

If your fingers are too thick, and your joints protrude. The main problem is that you cannot wear smaller ring models, which will only emphasize the bulges. However, large precious stones will work great for you. Try choosing models with massive inserts. A wide top, made with decoration, will also suit you.

Remember: don’t be afraid to wear bulky rings, fearing they’ll draw too much attention to your hands. The visual camouflage of “clumsy” joint areas with rings is the best way to go. Asymmetrical rings with bright stones, original decor, and interesting details are what you need in this case. The width and volume can be as large as possible because they successfully redirect all attention to them. Everyone around you will look at the signet ring and first see a beautiful jewelry masterpiece, not other features that might sometimes embarrass you.

If you have excessively wide fingers. Don't worry. With the right ring, they will help highlight your appearance. Pay attention to unusual asymmetric pieces or rings with oval, pear-shaped, baguette, or triangular stones. They make the finger longer and thinner. Apply horizontal patterns to the ring band, ultra-thin designs, and small stones to the ring head. In ancient times, hands with prominent fingers were often found among women with “blue blood.”

But don’t think that the pieces must correspond to the fingers. Rings with stones of the classic “princess” or “round” cut are definitely not an option. You need a shape that can visually elongate your finger, making it more stretched and thus compensating for its length and width. Therefore, stones on hands with full fingers are less desirable than, for example, asymmetric decorations on the ring band.

If you have too narrow fingers. This is a true gift! To effectively emphasize them, wide or medium-sized rings are the best fit. Pieces with a flat design or woven elements of precious metals are the best choice! Large models also look excellent on narrow fingers. Avoid wearing rings with small stones as they will make your fingers even smaller. Jewelry with wide bands decorated with multicolored stones is suitable. Models decorated with precious stones in the shape of “triangles,” “diamonds,” and “baguettes” will look extraordinary. Double models connected by chains or plates also look great on narrow fingers. “Three-in-one” rings are also welcome.

Expert Tips for Choosing a Ring

• The left hand is slightly smaller than the right, so the measurements may vary. Measure each finger separately.
• If you’re buying a ring in the summer, please note that in hot weather your hands may swell, and in winter, the jewelry may become loose.
• Thin rings should be snug, but thicker ones should be half a size larger to avoid rubbing.
• If you’re buying a ring in the store, try several options with different widths but the same circumference. This will help you find the most comfortable option.
• The ring should not be difficult to pass through the phalanges. It is ideal if it’s easy to put on and take off.
• Do not choose or try on a ring after intense physical activity or exercise – your hands will swell afterward.
