Find Their Ring Size In Secret

For when you need to find out your loved one’s ring size in top secret style, perhaps for a romantic proposal, these useful tips can be your go-to guide. Here’s how to make it the most unforgettable surprise of their life…

1.
Try On For Size

Take one of their rings and slide it onto your ring finger. Make a little mark with a pen where the ring goes up to on your finger and show this to one of our friendly experts in-store.

2.
Get Creative

Why not get creative and buy some Play-Doh. Gently press one of your loved one’s rings into it and bring into our store to have one of our staff to check the size. Remember to clean the ring afterwards, and be careful not to get the playdough in the setting or the diamond!

Something Borrowed

If you know your loved one won’t miss a ring they wear often for one day, simply bring it into our shop to be sized and sneakily put it back before they have time to notice.
