Sizings
Ring Size
If you don’t already know the ring size you require, you are welcome to visit me at a craft event or arrange a time to visit my workshop to have your finger measured. Alternatively, gauging a ring-size is a service that most high street jewellers will provide free of charge.
UK ring sizes are measured from A-Z and in half sizes.
The size of your hands can change over the course of the day and can also be affected by temperature (your fingers will be smaller when it’s cold and larger when warm). It might be best to have your finger measured a few times to ensure you order the best size, usually in the afternoon or evening when your fingers are likely to be at their largest.
Also note that wider ring bands will need a larger ring size, so it is best to go up at least one size.
Chain Lengths
Chains are available in different lengths including 16″ (standard length), 18″ & 20″, which can be selected during the ordering process. If you are unsure, please add to the ‘notes’ box that this is to be confirmed and it can be discussed after the order has been placed, and charged accordingly.
Longer chain lengths from 22″ to 30″ are available on request and are quoted for on an individual basis. Please get in touch via the contact page to discuss your requirements.
Determining the correct chain length:
Either measure a favourite necklace of a length that you like or if you are unsure about which length you require, use a piece of string with a knot in one end and bring the other end loosely around to where you wish the necklace to sit. (Please remember that the pendant will sit below this line – look at the approximate dimensions of each individual piece).
Additional Chains
If you would like more than one length of chain, extras can be purchased. Please contact me to discuss your requirements.
Bracelets and Bangles
Bracelet Sizing
If you have a bracelet that already fits you, measure the length of bracelet and make a note of it on the order, so I can make it to your exact size.
Alternatively, measure your wrist and then add 2cm as this will give you the length required. A standard length bracelet is 19cm to 20cm (7.5″-8″).
Bangle Sizing
If you have a bangle that already fits you, measure the inside diameter and make a note of it on the order, so I can make it to your exact size.
Measuring your hand
To measure the correct fit, hold your hand outstretched as if you were putting on a bangle and measure the widest part of your hand the bracelet will slide over. The average size is around 19cm-20cm (7.5″ – 8.0″) depending on how big or small your hand is
