INTERNATIONAL RING 
SIZE CONVERSION CHART

The information presented here has been compiled from many sources in various countries to help you determine your local ring size compared to those from other countries. The standards included in this resource are from the US & Canada, United Kingdom & Australia, Europe and Japan. 

We perform repairs of jewelry made of gold and silver, as well as items made of rubber and leather with tips or details in gold or silver.

All of our products are from sterling silver. Sterling silver is an alloy of silver containing 92.5% by weight of silver and 7.5% by weight of copper. Silver is usually alloyed with copper to increase its hardness and strength. Unfortunately sterling silver is prone to tarnishing in time. This is completely natural and normal. How to keep it shiny and presentable?

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Sterling silver tarnishes when exposed to salty air, chlorine, sulfur, humidity, perspiration, cosmetics, household bleach and other strong chemicals. To prevent tarnish as much as possible, we recommend that you store your fine jewelry in a safe, dry place when engaging in the following activities:

• Household and outdoor chores
• Showering, bathing or swimming in pools, hot tubs, hot springs and the ocean
• Using lotion, hair products, fragrances and other cosmetics
• Exercising at the gym or during contact sports
• Preparing meals

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Sterling silver jewelry should be cleaned periodically as it has been in contact with your skin, which perspires.

• Wash jewelry with hot water with a few drops of mild soap only if necessary. If your jewelry tarnish too much you can try wash with a baking soda (sodium bicarbonate used in cooking, for cleaning, or in toothpaste).
• A soft toothbrush can be used to remove dirt anywhere required.
• Gently rub the silver with the a cotton cloth several times. 

HOW DOES BLACKENED (OXIDIZED) SILVER WEAR?

Oxidized silver is only a surface treatment. Just the top layer of metal particles have been given that blackened color. Over time and depending on the amount of wear you give your pieces, the oxidized finish will polish off and the true color of the silver will shine through.

The look of your blackened silver piece will gradually change over time, so it’s best to brace yourself for the evolution of the piece when you purchase it.

Oxidized finishes have the longest life on pieces that come into minimal contact with their surroundings, such as earrings and necklaces. Rings and bracelets tend not to hold their color quite as long since they rub on things we touch more frequently. Blackened finishes which have been applied to the recesses of a design tend to hold their color best while the raised areas of the piece polish up over time.

It’s best to remove your oxidized silver jewelry before aggressive contact and when showering or washing your hands to prolong the dark color. In general, oxidized silver jewelry should not be cleaned with jewelry cleaning dips or aggressive polishing that will strip the blackened surface. If cleaning is necessary, use mild dish detergent and soft toothbrush with as little rubbing as possible.

The oxidized finish of jewelry can be restored at any time. It possible do in any jewelry repair store which works with silver jewelry.
