How to measure

  • Gauge (thickness)

    The thickness of the bar or wire. A smaller gauge number means thicker jewelry.

  • Hoop inner diameter

    Measured straight across the inside of the ring, from inner edge to inner edge.

  • Straight post length

    The wearable length of the post, measured between the ends. Balls and gems are not included.

Match your existing jewelry’s measurements. If you’re unsure, ask your piercer to confirm your size.
