Finding your perfect fit
A ring should feel like it has always been yours. Comfortable enough to forget you're wearing it, secure enough that it never slips. Use this guide to find your size from home, or visit us in Antwerp and we'll measure it for you.
Measure with a ring you already own
The most reliable way to find your size at home.
- Choose a ring that fits the finger you're shopping for.
- Measure the inside diameter from edge to edge, in millimetres.
- Find the closest diameter in the size chart below.
Measure your finger
No ring to measure? A strip of paper works just as well.
- Cut a thin strip of paper, about 5 mm wide.
- Wrap it around the base of your finger, snug but not tight.
- Mark the point where the paper meets.
- Lay it flat and measure the length in millimetres. This is your circumference.
- Find the closest circumference in the size chart below.
Make sure the paper can still slide over your knuckle. If your knuckle is wider than the base of your finger, measure both and choose a size in between.
For the most accurate fit
- Measure at the end of the day, when your fingers are at their natural size.
- Avoid measuring when your hands are cold, as fingers are slightly smaller.
- Wide bands sit tighter than slim ones. For bands wider than 4 mm, consider going up half a size.
- Between two sizes? Choose the larger one.
Buying a ring as a surprise
Planning a proposal? Discreetly borrow a ring your partner already wears on that hand and measure it using the method above. If that isn't possible, a close friend or family member may know their size. Our team is always happy to help you find a quiet solution.

One size, chosen by stone
Our earrings need no sizing: studs and hoops fit every ear. What you choose is the stone size.
How big is a carat?
For a round stone, each earring measures roughly:
- 0.50 ct · about 4.1 mm
- 1.00 ct · about 5.1 mm
- 2.00 ct · about 6.5 mm
- 3.00 ct · about 7.4 mm
Fancy shapes (oval, pear, marquise, emerald) look a little larger than a round stone of the same weight.
