How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home
Finding your ring size should feel simple. Whether you’re treating yourself, choosing a gift, or investing in something meaningful, this guide walks you through the easiest ways to get the perfect fit - from home, in just a few minutes.
The Easiest Ways to Measure Your Ring Size
1. Use an Adjustable Ring Sizer (Most Accurate)
The most reliable way to measure your ring size is with an adjustable ring sizer - the same style used in jewellers’ workshops.
How to use it:
- Slide the sizer onto your finger.
- Tighten until it feels snug but comfortable.
- Check the letter that aligns with the arrow - that’s your UK ring size.
Order our adjustable ring sizer for 50p, and ensure a perfect fit for any Maya Magal ring.

If you have a ring that fits the same finger, use our Printable Ring Size Guide.
How to use it:
- Download and print the guide at 100% scale.
- Place your ring on the circles until the inside edge matches one perfectly.
- Use the corresponding letter size.
This method is quick, easy, and reliable - especially for engagement and signet rings.
DOWNLOAD THE PRINTABLE GUIDE3. Use the String or Paper Method (Quick Home Option)
A simple method if you don’t have a ring nearby.
You'll need:
- A thin strip of paper or string
- A pen
- A ruler
How to measure:
- Wrap the string or paper around the base of your finger.
- Mark where the ends meet.
- Measure the length in millimetres.
- Compare the measurement with our UK ring size chart.
This method is a helpful starting point, though less precise than using a ring sizer.
Tips for Accurate Ring Sizing
- Measure your finger at the end of the day - fingers are naturally smaller in the morning.
- Avoid sizing after exercise or in cold weather; both can change your finger size temporarily.
- If you’re between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size for comfort.
- Wide or chunky ring bands can feel tighter - consider sizing up for designs like signet rings.
- For stacking, consider how rings will sit together; you may prefer a slightly larger size on the middle or index finger.
