How to find the size of my ring?
Whether you're choosing a ring for yourself or planning a surprise proposal, getting the right ring size is essential — especially for engagement rings where the moment matters. At Vai Ra, we believe in precision, tradition, and transparency. Here are two trusted methods to help you find your perfect ring size.
Option 1:
Finding ring size using the traditional approach using the steel ring sizers or pestle
If you want to get it right the first time, we recommend visiting a local jeweler and using professional tools like:
- Steel Ring Sizers: These calibrated tools are used in jewelry shops to measure your finger size precisely.
- Ring Mandrel (Pestle): Ideal for measuring the size of an existing ring. Simply slide the ring onto the mandrel to find its size.
Why We Prefer This Method:
- ✅ High Accuracy: Avoids resizing hassles and ensures a perfect fit.
- ✅ Jewelry Integrity: Minimizes the risk of weakening the ring through repeated alterations.
- ✅ Time-Saving: No guesswork or returns.

This is the pestle that checks a ring size from the existing ring. This is also very common tool in a local jewellery shop.
You can get an accurate measurement of the ring using this method. If you are not able to step out of your house or order online and need your ring size to be accurately measured, please reach out to us, we will send you one. It will take approximately 2-4 days to reach you. You will have to bear the shipping charges and the cost of the ring sizer Rs 500.
