Choosing, sizing and buying an engagement ring.
Why a ring spins or slips, the fixes a jeweler can fit short of resizing (sizing beads, a spring insert, a sizing bar, a counterbalance), stopgaps for a ring you’re keeping, what not to stick to it, and why to decide about a return before anyone alters a new ring.
Comfort fit describes only the inside of a band. Here is how it feels compared with a standard fit, why advice on sizing comfort-fit bands points in three directions, and how to be measured so the size carries over.
A full eternity band looks the same from every angle but is very hard to resize, and some owners find the palm-side stones rub. Here is how full, three-quarter and half bands compare for comfort, how to size one, and what to do if it does not fit.
A gap beside your engagement ring usually comes from the setting, not the band. Here is how straight, flush-fit and contour bands compare, what to watch for rubbing, and how to check fit before you buy online.
Three ways to measure ring size accurately at home, a US size chart in millimeters, and the two mistakes that make almost every home measurement read small.
