Sizing Guides

Our bodies are all unique. Therefore, necklace and bracelet lengths will vary and look different on each person. If you need help selecting a length, you’re in the right place! Keep reading for more info.

 

NECKLACES

Necklaces that have a pendant or disc hanging off of the chain will be measured a bit differently than a necklace that has a suspended bar, disc, or charm.

PENDANT, DISC, OR CHAIN ONLY

For this type of necklace, you will have to account for the length of the chain, jump rings, and clasp only since the pendant hangs below the actual chain (like in the sample necklace below).

SUSPENDED BAR, DISC, OR CHARM

If a necklace has a bar, disc, or charm that is suspended left and right by the chain, you will have to account for the entire necklace from one end to the other (bar/disc/charm length + jump rings + clasp + chain are all included in the overall chain measurement).


For example: the sample necklace below shows a necklace that is 18 inches in length. In this case, the bar measures 2 inches long. The rest of the necklace (including chain, jump rings, and clasp) will be 16 inches long.

∙ To find the best fit, measure yourself!

  1. Using a piece of string, wrap it around your neck and mark it or cut at the desired length.
  2. Lay the string against a measuring tape or ruler to find its size.

∙ Already own a necklace that fits you perfectly? Lay it flat against a measuring tape or ruler from end to end to get the length.

∙ If you want your disc or bar to rest a bit lower on your neck, you may want to choose a slightly longer chain or consider ordering an extender to have length flexibility.

BRACELETS

  1. Measure your wrist below the wrist bone (where you would normally wear your bracelet) using a flexible measuring tape, string, or a strip of paper.
  2. If using a strip of paper or string, mark your strip with a pen where the end of the bracelet needs to be. Then measure the strip or string with a ruler. This is your wrist size.
  3. To find your bracelet size, use the size guide below to increase the wrist measurement based on how you like your bracelets to fit:
    ∙ snug fit = add 1/2in.
    ∙ comfort fit = add 1in.
    ∙ loose fit = add 1-1/2in.
  4. Choose the available size closest to your measured size.
