Every product page lists the exact measurements for that piece. This page explains what those numbers feel like when you put them on.
The quickest check you can do at home: take a piece of string or a tape measure, hold it where you want the jewellery to sit, and measure against the lengths below.
Necklaces
Chain lengths are given end to end, including the clasp. Where a necklace has an extender chain, the page gives the range.
- 40cm – sits high on the collarbone, close to the base of the neck. The length that reads as deliberate with an open shirt or a plain crew neck, and the one to choose as the top layer.
- 45cm – sits just below the collarbone, in the hollow at the base of the throat. The most versatile length and the safest single choice. Works with almost every neckline.
- 50cm – sits on the upper chest, a little below the collarbone. Good for a pendant with some weight, good over knitwear, and the natural second layer under a 40cm.
Layering two lengths at once, leave at least 5cm between them so the pendants do not fight.
Bracelets
Measure your wrist snugly with a tape measure, then add roughly 1.5cm for a comfortable fit and 2.5cm for a looser, moving fit.
- Chain and link bracelets give a fastened length on the product page. Many include an adjustable extender chain, so one bracelet covers a range of wrists. The page states the range.
- Sprung cuffs are open-ended and flex to fit. Slide the opening over the narrowest part of your wrist rather than forcing it over the widest, and let it settle where it wants to sit. Sprung cuffs suit most wrists within the range printed on the page, and they are not designed to be repeatedly bent open and closed. Doing that fatigues the metal.
Rings
We do not sell sized rings at the moment. Our rings are adjustable open bands: the ring is not a closed circle, and the gap lets you ease it to the finger you want to wear it on.
To fit one, open it very slightly with even pressure from both sides, slide it on, and close it gently until it is comfortable and does not spin. Adjust as little as you can and as few times as you can. Every adjustment works the metal, and repeated opening and closing will eventually weaken any band.
Hoops
Hoop sizes are the outer diameter of the hoop.
- 12mm – a small hoop that sits close to the lobe, roughly the width of a fingernail. Everyday, unfussy, easy to sleep in and easy to wear alongside other piercings.
- 20mm – a mid hoop, a little larger than a 5p coin. It clears the lobe and reads as jewellery from across a room without being the whole outfit. The best first hoop.
- 30mm – a statement hoop, a little larger than a 2p coin, sitting well below the lobe and moving as you move. Hair up, and let it be the only thing you are wearing on your ears.
Earring posts and hoop wires are listed with their material on each product page. If you still are not sure between two sizes, get in touch and we will tell you what we would pick.
