Made to measure

You can request your very own necklace length by writing to us at orders@lesbeads.com or through the chat bubble in the bottom right corner. Prices are subject to the length and other factors but they do not differ much from the original, and quotes for bespoke necklaces are given in advance. We would love to work with you on your special request.

Ring sizes are measured differently in each country or region. You can get your finger measured at a local jeweller and use the chart below, or do it at home with a string or tape and a ruler.

How to measure the circumference of your finger

  • The circumference is the measurement around your finger.
  • Get a piece of string or tape and a ruler. If you have a flexible measuring tape you can use this too. (If you already have a ring that fits the desired finger you could measure the inside circumference or diameter too.)
  • Wrap the string around the finger you want to measure and mark at the joint.
  • Extend the string on top of a ruler to get the circumference. Or if you used a measuring tape just read the mm.
  • Compare that measurement with the size chart to get the diameter (measured side to side in a straight line).

Tips

  • Your finger size tends to be largest at the end of the day due to swelling from daily activities, temperature changes and fluid retention. Measuring at this time helps ensure the size you select is comfortable throughout the day.
  • When you find your size is in between sizes, we recommend selecting the larger size.
  • Sizes can vary between your left and right hands, as one is usually larger than the other. The same applies to your toes if you are considering a toe ring.

For made-to-order rings, please send us the circumference (diameter, other sizes or ring letter work too) to orders@lesbeads.com noting your order number, e.g. #1234.

Toe rings are measured just like hand rings: measure the circumference of the toe and compare it with the chart below.
