Size Guide
We get lots of questions about how to find the perfect ring size, and we know it can be an important — and sometimes confusing — process!
Ideally, the ring shouldn’t fly off when you wave hello, but it also shouldn’t be so tight that it cuts off circulation on a hot day.
If you’re in Medellín or nearby, we recommend visiting our store-atelier to get your size taken precisely. We also offer an at-home sizing service, where we send you a ring sizer to ensure the most accurate measurement possible. This service is generally offered once the quote has been approved — especially for those outside Medellín — and has an additional cost of 30,000 COP.
Another option is to visit a trusted local jeweler to have your size taken in person.
Keep in mind that if an adjustment is required, resizing or modifying the ring can take about two weeks, depending on its complexity.
Once you approve the quote, we suggest choosing one of these two options: visiting our store or using the at-home sizing service.
If you have any questions, feel free to write to us at comercial@capajoyeria.com or send us a message at +57 322 687 8018.
For quoting purposes: how to get an approximate size?
In order to send you an accurate quote, we need an approximate ring size. That’s why we suggest using one of the following at-home methods to get an initial reference.
Important:
This size guide is for quoting only. Once the design is approved, the size must be confirmed using one of the methods mentioned above.
General rule:
The ring should slide easily over the knuckle but require some effort and movement to take off.
We recommend measuring your finger several times on different days, as size can fluctuate with heat, activity, or time of day.
How can I get an idea of my ring size?
1. If you already have a ring that fits you well: measure its diameter (⌀)
Choose a ring that fits comfortably on the finger where you plan to wear the new one.
Place the ring on top of a ruler or measuring tape, seen from above.
What you need to measure is the inner diameter (⌀) of the ring — that is, the distance from one inner edge to the other, passing through the center.
For greater precision, make sure one of the ring’s inner edges aligns with a whole number on the ruler.
Once you have the inner diameter (⌀), consult our Size Guide (at the bottom of this page) to find out which size it corresponds to.
2. If you don’t have any rings: measure the circumference of your finger
Take a piece of string or a thin strip of paper (preferably one that isn’t stretchy).
Wrap it around the finger where you want to wear the ring.
✧ Remember that each finger has a different size.
✧ Avoid measuring directly over the knuckle.
✧ Be precise — even one millimetre can change the size.
Mark the point where the paper or string overlaps.
Measure that length with a ruler, from the beginning to the mark — this is the circumference of your finger.
How to convert that measurement into an approximate size?
Use the following formula to find the diameter (⌀) of your finger:
diameter (⌀) = circumference ÷ 3.1415
Once you have the diameter (⌀), check the Size Guide at the bottom of this page to see which ring size it corresponds to.
