Size
3. Get the size right
Rings are made to your size and are final sale, so measure carefully with our ring size guide. Buying a surprise? Borrow a ring they wear on the same finger and measure its inside diameter.
Diamond shape
Each ring page shows its center stone shape, such as round, oval, emerald or cushion. Longer shapes like oval and emerald can look larger on the finger for the same carat weight.
