HOW TO DETERMINE YOUR RING SIZE
Ring sizing is tricky! We created this guide to help but we highly recommend going to a local jeweler and getting sized in person.
Many of our rings are easily resized but there are some that cannot (for example, most rings with stones or patterns all around).
If you have any questions please email customerservice@catbirdnyc.com before purchasing.
BEFORE MEASURING – CONFIRM PRINTED PAPER SIZE
1. Ring measurements are very precise. Carefully follow these
instructions to obtain an accurate measurement.
2. Prior to printing, ensure that Page Scaling is set to “None” on
your print dialog box.
1 inch
3. Measure the bar on the left. It must be exactly 1 inch or 30 mm
long. Alternately, place a quarter where indicated. The quarter
should fit completely over the image so that all lines are covered,
without the quarter hanging over any edges.
30 mm
MEASURE CURRENT RING
INSIDE
1. Select a ring that properly fits the intended finger. (Engagement and wedding
rings are traditionally worn on the ring finger on the left hand in the United
States.)
DIAMETER
2. Place the ring over the circles below, matching the inside edge of the ring to
the circle nearest in size. This measurement refers to the inside diameter of the
ring.
3. If the ring falls between two sizes, order the larger size.
Measurements match the
inside edge of the ring.

TIPS FOR MEASURING RING SIZE
MEASURING YOUR FINGER
Your ring should fit your finger comfortably; snug enough
so that it will not fall off, but loose enough to slide over
your knuckle with some resistance.
RING SIZES IN THE US
Women’s rings typically range from size 3 to 9. The most
commonly purchased women’s ring sizes at Catbird range
from size 5 to 7. Size 6 is the most popular ring size.
Finger size changes depending on the time of day and the
weather. For best results measure your finger size:
Men’s rings typically range from size 8 to 14. The most
commonly purchased men’s ring sizes at Catbird range
from size 8 to 10-1/2. Size 9 is the most popular ring size.
1. At the end of the day and when your fingers
are warm (Fingers are smaller in the early
morning and when cold.)
2. Measure finger size 3 to 4 times to eliminate
an erroneous reading.
Temperature is important
Don’t measure when your body temperature is either too
cold or too hot. A cold finger shrinks while a hot finger
expands causing an inaccurate reading. Only measure
when fingers are at room temperature.
When two sizes seem to fit
If you hesitate between two sizes, always go with the larger
one.
Don’t use strings
Strings tend to stretch, which can result in wrong size.
Big knuckles can affect your size
If your knuckle is a lot larger than the base of your
finger, you may need to go up a half size.
A wider band needs a bigger size
If you are purchasing a wide band, you will be
more comfortable moving up a half size from
your measurement.
TIPS FOR BUYING THE RING AS A SURPRISE
Borrow one of your signicant other’s rings (from the correct
finger) and use the ring measurements on the first page to
determine its size. We recommend measuring with a plain
band. Please make sure beforehand that the ring you are
purchasing can be resized. Rings with stones or patterns all
the way around usually cannot be resized. Most other rings
can be resized for a nominal fee.
For best results, measure a plain, narrow band
Extra wide band styles tend to run slightly small. If your
borrowed ring has a narrower shaft than the one you wish
to purchase, you may wish to order a ring a size larger than
the normal size worn. Also, large stone rings may cause
the shank to lift up when laid on its side on the display,
slightly distorting the size measurements.
INTERNATIONAL SIZE CONVERSION
If ordering from outside of the US or Canada, determine
your ring size according to your country’s standard. Then
use the International Ring Size Chart to convert to the
corresponding US ring size to place your order.
We cannot be held responsible for ring sizing. We guarantee to make the size that is ordered, but we cannot be
responsible for conversions or fitting.
