I am in need of advice on sizing rings for stacking!

[PattyCo]

I am rewarding myself and ordering 2 rings for stacking and am unsure of what ring size to get. Should they both be in my usual size 7, or should one of them be bigger, say a 7.5? Or is that too big?

Thanks a million!

Typically when I stack several bands together that are around the 2mm marker I get a quarter size larger then my size. So since I'm a size 6 for stackers I get a 6.25. If the ring were more then 2mm I would probably go up another quarter size to 6.5 for comfort.

Thank you Sarahbear!

The ring is this one from Diamond Zone, but in Rose Gold. I'm not sure how to upload a picture from the internet, but here is the link.

My plan is to wear 2 of them together, and occassionally put my wedding band between them .

Just keep in mind that if there's too much of a size difference (more than 1/4 for me) - they won't line up evenly on your finger - some will look wider. I like my stacks pretty even.

Aaahhh...I hadn't thought of that. The bands I want are described as "3.5mm from its two widest points" and my intention is to wear them together, plus occassionaly add my wedding band(2mm I think).

Given all that, what sizes would be best on a size 7 finger?


And sincere thanks for all the advice

When I wear 2 stacking bands they are the same size but when I have 4 one of them is normally 1/2 size bigger

The more rings I wear, the bigger they get. Currently, I have:

At the bottom, a french cut ruby band at 6.25

Then my wedding band, at 5.75

Then my new-old vintage setting in a 7

Flanked by a very thin orange blossom band at a 6

Together, they seem to average out at 5.5!

This sounds like what I want to have some day, TONS of stackers, LOL! Is there a picture of all this wonderfulness?


If I wore the 2 new stackers plus my wedding band it might go something like this;

top, new 3.5 mm stacker, 7.5 (or is 7.25 better?)
middle, 2-ish mm wedding band, 7
bottom, new 3.5 mm stacker 7

Aaaand...if I wore the 2 stackers by themselves it would be:

top, new 3.5 mm stacker, 7.5
bottom, new 3.5 mm stacker 7

So, perhaps, 7.5 might be to big?
