Clothes make the man — the mantra behind many well-dressed
individuals. Dressing well largely contributes to one’s self-esteem,
and ‘looking sharp’ is often a compliment that follows. Dressing
immaculately leaves a positive and lasting impression, at the same
time also contributing to associated positive traits like eloquence,
tidiness and affability. Taking a more literal spin on things, pairing
angular fine jewellery with a smart ensemble is the last step to a
pleasant presentation.

Your Ring
A ring is a very intimate piece of jewellery; some are worn
every day. This means it should fit well and feel comfortable,
so here are some important sizing tips.
Finding Your
Ring Size
Place your ring on top of any one of
these circles. The size of your ring is
where the circle sits snugly around
the inner circumference of the ring.
2 (13.2mm)
12 (16.7mm)
3 (14mm)
13 (16.9mm)
4 (14.1mm)

Where Size Matters
A person’s ring size may change over time
owing to age, injury or weight change. A
jeweller may be able to resize your ring,
although this depends on its design.
If your finger falls between two sizes, choose
the larger size to make sure it will fit; a wider
ring may require a slightly larger size, because
it covers more of your finger.
Measure your finger size at the end of the day
when your fingers are at their largest (like
sizing shoes).
Wrap a piece of string or a strip of paper
around your finger. Mark the point where the
two ends meet. Measure the string or paper
against a ruler to get the circumference of
your finger. Divide that by 3.14 to get the
diameter of your finger. Look up your ring size
using the table shown on the right.
Don’t measure finger sizes when your hands
are cold; let them warm up to room
temperature.
9 (15.7mm)
18 (19.0mm)
10 (16.1mm)
11 (16.5mm)
19 (19.4mm)
(Sizing is for China, Singapore, Taiwan, Macau and
Japan; Hong Kong uses a different scale)
