Interesting survey... mind if I add one more factor that may affect the statistics?

What age were you when you got the ring?

All you ladies that already answered please feel free to add an answer to this!

ChooChoo, I modified my original post (edit post) and added my age, so maybe everyone else can do the same so that everyone's replies with their finger size, information etc is all together in one post.

Age: early 40s
Age when I received the ring: late 30s
Ring size: 6.5
Fingers: Shortish and plump
Size of the rest of me: Medium height and plump
Center stone: Transitional cut / Old European cut
Size of center stone: 1.4 ct / 1.65 ct
Setting: Deco pave platinum / repro Edwardian platinum

I put down both my "engagment" rings--which originally belonged to my two grandmothers. So maybe I should put down THEIR statistics instead of mine. They were both in their early 20s when they received their rings, at opposite ends of the 1920s. They were married 50+ years--one of them 70+ years. The deco pave grandmother had the most beautiful tapering fingers; I wish I'd inherited her hands! And her face, she was a beauty. I got her figure, though, which wasn't such a bad deal. The other grandmother, whom I'm starting to look more and more like, had short, plump hands like mine. But I don't know what her original setting was like, because she had the stone reset several times (the last time she put it in a necklace as a graduation present for me).

fingers are short, average, with a wide hand. Overall hand is small.
Have a 1.01ct RB in a simple gold setting, it accompanies a wedding band, gold and plain.
