Ring size

Ring size 4: US 4 in mm, UK, EU and Japan

A US size 4 ring has an inside diameter of 14.9 mm and an inside circumference of 46.8 mm. The same ring is a H½ in the UK and Australia, a 46.8 on the EU/ISO scale and a 7 in Japan and Korea. The figures below come from the same geometry as the full chart, so they agree with it to a tenth of a millimeter.

What a size 4 ring measures

Inside diameter 14.9 mm (about 0.59 in), inside circumference 46.8 mm. Measuring a ring that already fits? Measure the inside edge to edge for the diameter. Measuring a finger? Wrap a strip of paper around its base and compare the overlap with the circumference.

Is US 4 a common ring size?

US 4 is below the 4.5 to 7.5 range most women's engagement rings are stocked in. Many designs can be made or resized down to it, but ask before ordering a setting with stones around the band.

Between two sizes?

Take the larger one. A ring is easier to make smaller than larger, a wide band needs a little more room than a thin one, and fingers swell in heat and in the evening. A jeweler's sizer set settles it in a minute.

Conversions are rounded to the nearest standard size, and published charts differ from each other by up to half a size. Treat the result as a close estimate, confirm it with a jeweler's sizer before buying, and check the resizing policy.
