Ring Size Guide Australia: How to Measure Your Ring Size

Gold horseshoe ring for Australian ring size guide

Finding the right ring size online is much easier when you measure before ordering. This guide explains two simple ways to measure your ring size at home, how common numbered sizes compare by inside diameter, and what to do if you are between sizes.

Clair De Lune rings are available in different sizes depending on the design. Always check the individual product page before ordering.

Quick ring size chart

The table below gives approximate inside diameters for common numbered ring sizes. Small manufacturing and measurement differences are normal, so use this as a practical guide rather than a substitute for trying on a ring.

Ring size Approx. inside diameter
5 15.7 mm
6 16.5 mm
7 17.3 mm
8 18.1 mm

Method 1: Measure a ring you already own

This is usually the easiest method if you already have a ring that fits the same finger well.

  1. Choose a ring that fits the finger you plan to wear the new ring on.
  2. Place the ring flat on a ruler.
  3. Measure the inside diameter straight across the centre of the ring, from inner edge to inner edge.
  4. Measure in millimetres and compare the result with the chart above.

Do not measure the outside edge of the ring, because the band thickness will make the result too large.

Method 2: Measure your finger

You can also measure around the finger using a narrow strip of paper or a non-stretch measuring tape.

  1. Wrap the strip around the base of the finger where the ring will sit.
  2. Keep it comfortably snug rather than tight.
  3. Mark where the ends meet.
  4. Measure the marked length in millimetres.
  5. Repeat the measurement two or three times to reduce error.

Finger size can change slightly during the day. For a more reliable result, measure when your hands are at a normal, comfortable temperature rather than immediately after exercise or when your hands are very cold.

What if you are between ring sizes?

If your measurement falls between two available sizes, the better choice depends on the ring and how you like it to fit. A wider band can feel tighter than a fine band, while fingers with a larger knuckle may need enough room for the ring to pass comfortably over the knuckle.

If you are unsure, compare the measurements with a ring you already wear comfortably or contact us before ordering.

Measure the correct finger

The same finger on your left and right hand can measure differently. Measure the exact finger where you plan to wear the ring. If you are buying a ring for stacking, also consider whether several bands together may feel more fitted than one fine band worn alone.

Ring size FAQs

How do I know my ring size in Australia?

Measure the inside diameter of a ring that already fits, or measure around the finger in millimetres. Compare the result with the size information on the product page before ordering.

Is ring size the same on every finger?

No. Finger size can vary between fingers and between your left and right hand, so measure the exact finger where you plan to wear the ring.

Should a ring feel tight?

A ring should feel secure without being uncomfortable. It should pass over the knuckle with gentle resistance and sit comfortably at the base of the finger.

When is the best time to measure ring size?

Measure when your hands are at a normal temperature. Very cold or swollen fingers can give a less representative measurement.
