Earrings, necklaces, bracelets - their variety, presented on the site "AliExpress", is amazing. When choosing accessories, the shape, color, the presence of stones and the material of manufacture are taken into account. There are no difficulties in purchasing these jewelry. But with rings, the situation is different: the whole thing is whether the decoration will fit right. So how to determine the size of the rings? After all, there is no fitting option at AliExpress? There are two options: the first - “with your finger in the sky”, the second - self-determination of size.
Ring Sizing Methods
Independent measurements in order to obtain the necessary figures are simple. The main thing is to know how to determine the size of the rings. AliExpress presents American indicators, they need to be calculated and equated with Russian ones. You can use one of the methods to determine the size:
- Using thread, lace or paper.
- Trying in a jewelry store.
- Having a glove available.
The first method is the easiest and most common. To measure the circumference of the rings, you need a thread, string or a small strip of paper. The selected measuring tool must be wrapped around the finger. One girth is enough. Mark the joint with a marker or pen, unfold the workpiece and measure the distance with a ruler. The resulting figure is the American ring size. The table below will help translate it into a Russian numerical value.
Second calculation method
Another system of calculus is more accurate. To measure the diameter you need to take a thick thread, wrap a finger five times at the base. The blank ring should not pinch the skin and cause inconvenience when removing or putting it on. The ends of the threads should be twisted and cut. Then measure the length of the thread with a ruler and divide the resulting value by 15.7.
To determine the circumference, the initial length of the thread should be divided by 5. Now a close numerical value can be found in the tables "Aliexpress". Russian ring sizes correspond to the diameter of the circle.
Brief instructions for men
It is most difficult for men to choose a ring for their beloved through a worldwide network. You should carefully read the product description on the site. Rings on "AliExpress" are divided into two types:
- one-size;
- with a choice of size.
When the familiarization stage is completed, you can determine the size of the finger with the help of gloves worn by the girl. If her clothes are less than 44-46, he is also M, then the ring is better to take 17 mm or 17.5. Such a system is not accurate, but worth a try.
Trying on rings in a jewelry store
If you don’t want to measure your finger and make calculations, you can contact the nearest jewelry store. Vendors will help you determine the size of the rings to the millimeter, thanks to the finger meter or the usual fitting.
If the above methods helped to figure out how to determine the size of the rings on "AliExpress", then it's time to familiarize yourself with several important points before trying on jewelry in a store:
- It must be remembered that in hot weather the fingers swell a little. If fitting is carried out in the summer, then in the winter season the ring can slip off.
- Each finger needs to be measured individually because they have different widths.
- Before trying, it is undesirable to engage in heavy physical exercises.
- The sizes of the rings on the left and right hand will be different. All due to the fact that the fingers of the left hand are thinner.
The product should not fall off the finger or, conversely, rub it. It is necessary to remove and put on the jewelry several times in order to accurately understand whether its size is suitable or not.
In addition, each seller in the online store provides different numerical values in the dimensional tables. Then how to determine the size of the rings? On "Aliexpress" you can contact the seller and clarify all the details of interest before placing an order.
