How to select an engagement ring?

Everyone has different styles and requirements for the ring. Before choosing a ring, you may want to pay close attention to your partner's hobbies. We generally recommend that customers begin by looking at the intended wearer’s daily life. Pay attention to the type of accessories that he/she wears more regularly. Are they more regal and glamorous? Or more low-key and elegant? Customers may also seek the advice of close family members or friends. Before purchasing an engagement ring, they should have a general understanding of the intended wearer’s preferences. If there is no concept of preference, customers will generally select a simple and classic ring style, which is the easiest to match.

  

What budget should be set?

A marriage proposal is a sacred ritual that combines an expression of love with a lifelong promise to care for the intended. It is of tremendous value, regardless of the monetary cost of the ring. The most important thing is to ensure the intended feels your determination and sincerity.

If a customer has no idea on what budget to set for the engagement ring, according to past experience, our customers will spend an average of one to two months’ salary on this purchase.

  

Where is the engagement ring worn?

Since ancient times, the ring has represented a vow of love. However, where the ring is worn is different in different cultures. Western tradition believes that the left hand is connected to the heart, so the wedding and engagement rings are generally worn on the left hand, and the engagement ring is placed on the ring finger of the left hand when the marriage proposal is made. In Hong Kong, the engagement ring is usually worn in the middle finger of the left hand, while the wedding ring is worn on the ring finger of the left hand.

  

How to measure ring size?

The following are some methods for which accuracy is low, for reference:

Finger Size Estimation

You can examine your partner's finger to approximate the estimated size and refer to the ring diameter conversion chart. The average middle finger size for Hong Kong women is 12 to 14 laps.

Measuring Line Length

You can measure your partner's finger circumference with a string or note. First, around the root of the partner's finger, then draw a mark at the intersection with a pen, then measure the length of the rope or strip with a ruler, and then select the closest ring size on the ring size meter. Of course, all this must be done while your partner is soundly asleep.

 

Higher Accuracy Method:

Existing Ring

If your partner already wears a ring, try wearing it on your finger for comparison, or give us a direct measurement! But there are some differences between the main fingers and the left and right hands.

Borrow Our Plastic Ring Sizer

We have different sizes of rubber ring which you can loan for free! Measure without your partner's knowledge!

  

If you are not confident about the ring size we recommend ordering a larger size than the estimated one, to ensure that the engagement ring can be put on during the proposal.
