Children's Jewelry Size Guide - Ring, Bracelet, Bangle & Necklace Sizing for Kids
When selecting jewelry for children, it's important to note that sizing is typically based on the individual child's size rather than just their age. Every child is unique, and physical build can vary significantly. For instance, a younger child may have a wider wrist than an older one.
This guide offers general sizing suggestions, but we recommend considering the child's specific build for the best fit.
Children's Ring Sizing - A Quick Reference
We offer a selection of standard sizes for children's rings. To ensure the right fit, you can wrap a strip of paper around your child’s finger and mark where it overlaps. Measure the marked length with a ruler and compare it to the ring sizes available. If you're unsure between two sizes, we recommend opting for the larger one for comfort.
Bracelet Sizing - Recommended Guidelines
It's always a good idea to measure the child's wrist for an accurate bracelet size. A fun way to do this is by using a piece of string or ribbon, which can then be measured. Children love participating in these activities! For a comfortable bracelet fit, leave an additional 1-2 cm on top of the wrist measurement.
