Find Her Ring Size
Measure A Ring
She Wears Now
Secretly borrow and measure a ring that fits her left-hand ring finger (or the finger you intend her to use). Tread carefully. You don’t want her to find out. Depending on how much time you’ll have with the ring before she notices it’s gone, here are a few tactics to consider:
1. Take it to a jeweler. If you have a few hours, take one of her ring to a local jeweler to size it professionally. While this takes more time, it’s also more accurate.
2. Request a ring sizer from Grandqouver after placing your down payment. You will receive the ring sizer from us within 5 days.
3. Trace it. Carefully trace the inside and outside of the ring on a piece of paper. Repeat several times for added accuracy. Take the paper to a jeweler for a size estimate.

Pretend To Shop
For Someone Else
If you’re up for the acting challenge, pretend that you want to buy a ring for someone else and ask her for help. Whether it’s your sister, grandmother, aunt, or mom, pick someone whose hands closely match hers. This could also be a great way to gauge her style, especially if you ask her for advice on color and other design elements. Here are a few tactics you can apply:
1. Casually ask her if she knows her own ring size. As you browse for rings, say your version of “I don’t know what ring size my mom wears. Do you know yours? I could use you as a reference.” Make sure this feels like a natural part of the conversation.
2. Ask her to try on rings. Pay attention to which size fits her best. If needed, take a solo trip to the store ahead of time to familiarize yourself with where and how sizes are listed.
3. Bring her a ring for approval. If visiting a store together is not possible, try purchasing an inexpensive ring you think would fit her. Casually ask her to try it on to make sure it “looks good” before you gift it to your mom. Pay close attention to the fit.

Ask A Trusted
Friend For Help
Enlist the help of a close friend or family member who may either already know her ring size or assist you in executing the other methods. Just make sure this is someone you can trust with your secret, otherwise, it’s not worth the risk. Here are a few questions to ask:
1. Do they already know her ring size? Perhaps her mom or best friend recently purchased a ring for her as a gift. In this case, they may already know her size.
2. Are they open to having her try on their rings? If they have similar sized hands, they could try each others’ rings for fun and in the process gauge her size.
3. Would they go jewelry? Whether at an artisan market, the mall, or even a jewelry store, they could browse for rings while also noting her size.
4. Can they ask her for her ring size? If the question fits naturally into a conversation, they can simply ask for her ring size without giving away your secret.
