Size Guide
RINGS
Finding the correct ring size can be a difficult task. Below we have outlined how you can (more or less) establish your ring size at home. We do, however, recommend rather going to see a local jeweller and getting your finger sized in person to be sure. Should you choose to size your finger at home and size it incorrectly, please note that we cannot be held liable for any inaccurate sizing provided.
STEPS TO MEASURE YOUR RING SIZE AT HOME:
- Find a piece of sturdy cardboard, plastic or thick wire and wrap it around the desired finger
- Take a pen and mark the spot where the ends touch
- Measure the length marked using a ruler
- Use the chart below as a guideline to find your correct ring size
Please see a general guideline for ring sizing below. South Africa follows the UK size model as per the ring chart.

POINTS TO NOTE:
- Your finger size can change depending on the temperature. Do not take the measurement when your body temperature is either too hot (as your finger size will expand) or too cold (as your fingers tend to shrink).
- Please don’t use a string to gauge your finger size. They can stretch resulting in an inaccurate reading.
- If your knuckle is bigger than the base of your finger, we recommend going up half or even a full size.
- If you have any questions, please feel free to mail us on info@sadieandjean.com for further guidance
Once again, we always recommend visiting a local jeweller and getting your finger sized in person beforehand to be sure as resizing can be a tricky process, with possible extra costs incurred.
