What style of ring suits your hands? It is all about you!

When looking at rings, consider the size of your hand, length and width of your fingers and nails. Longer nails lengthen the appearance of your fingers.  Keep in mind the shape and size of the main stone and the width of the ring.

Long fingers

• Princess-cut and round stones are especially flattering.
• Wider bands tend to complement the length of your fingers.
• Long fingers can carry a bold more chunky style— but only if that suits you. Remember it is all about YOU!

Slender fingers

• Smaller stones can help make thin fingers appear wider.
• Thicker bands work well to widen the look of your finger.

Short fingers

• Oval, pear or marquise stones help lengthen the appearance of your finger.
• Rectangular emerald-shaped stones can lengthen short fingers, as long they aren’t so big they overwhelm.
• Slender, narrow-width bands create the illusion of length.

Wide fingers

• Go for a wide oval, marquise, rectangular or emerald shape — narrow stones will make wide fingers look even wider.
• Cluster styles and round stones in larger settings flatter wider fingers.
• Choose a medium to thick band.
• Angular shapes and asymmetrical designs both minimize the width of the finger.

Scarred Fingers

• Should you have a mark or a scar on your finger there is a way to design a custom ring to cover that mark or scar.  We have done this for our clients!

Big knuckles

• The right ring will draw attention away, not toward your knuckles.
• Look at thicker, heavier bands — this style of ring will draw attention to the ring instead of the middle of your finger.
• Not just your finger and knuckles but the size of your hand you need to keep in mind.

Small hands

• With small hands, it’s best to keep the over all proportion of your ring small.
• Small round, princess-cut, oval or heart-shaped stones work especially well and a thinner more delicate band.

Large hands

• Try larger rings that suit your personality –you have room to get creative!
• With larger hands, you can easily get away with bulky, chunky styles.  The style of ring that you can see from across the room!
