How do you choose the perfect ring?
When you want to find the most flattering ring for your hand, take a look at the shape of your fingers as well as the size of your hand. Different hand shapes look best with different shapes and sizes of stones. These guidelines can help you pick the most flattering ring for your hands.
Keep in mind that you don't have to give up ring shapes you really love; these are just guidelines. And it also helps to consider a different size or choose a cluster style that has flattering stones shapes around your favourite shape of gemstone.
Remember that a person with large hands and short fingers is likely to look best in different ring styles than a short-fingered person with small hands.
Also, the width of the fingers can affect how a ring looks on the hand. Nail length and shape can make a difference too. When choosing rings, think of the proportion of the fit as well as the ring style you love. Try on different shapes and sizes of rings next time you go shopping to discover the most flattering rings for your hand.
Short fingers - Round stones can seem to shorten short fingers even further. The marquise shape can help add the illusion of length to short fingers. Pear or teardrop shapes are also usually flattering on short fingers. Big rectangular rings are probably the least flattering as they can overwhelm short fingers. Also choose rings with narrow bands. Stacking rings can also be worn by women with short fingers provided each individual ring is quite delicate.
Long fingers - Marquise shapes often just make long fingers look even longer. The marquise is a stretched out oblong shape with pointed ends. Pear or oval stones may also not be very flattering on long fingers. Round rings are often the most flattering ring for this finger type. Stacking rings also look spectacular on long fingers.
Wide fingers - Wider types of marquise styles may flatter short, wide fingers. The idea with wide fingers is not to have two much skin showing on each side of the ring or fingers may look even wider. Round stones in larger settings may look best on this finger type. Cluster styles may be the most flattering ring on hands with wide fingers.
Many women with wide fingers also have an overall square hand shape - if this is the case, square ring styles will only exaggerate this feature. Chunky cabochon rings are perfect for softening these hands and making them appear more elegant.
Large hands - Rings with very small stones may just look lost on large hands. Try larger rings that suit your personality. You may even be able to wear really bulky or chunky ring styles well. A well proportioned ring to suit your hand type can even make your hands look smaller and more feminine - don't hide your hands away by not wearing jewellery!
Small hands - Small heart-shaped, oval, round or square stones may all be flattering on small hands. The main thing to remember is to keep the proportion of the ring small. Small ovals may also make flattering rings for those with small hands, but stacking rings may not be that flattering unless the fingers are long.
Narrow fingers - Heart-shaped or round stones may not always be the most flattering ring for a hand with narrow fingers. Thicker band styles of rings may also help add horizontal lines to narrow fingers to help them look wider. Wearing rings with small stones may also help thinner fingers look wider. Try pave set chunky cocktail rings, these are a perfect style for narrow fingers.
