Rita Ring

Our ring sizes are all stated as UK sizes. A size guide comparison chart is below for customers outside the UK and include the actual measurements for each size.

A correctly fitting ring will not be too loose or tight and ideally should no longer be felt on your finger after initially putting it on.

Thicker ring bands will spread the finger tissue more than a thinner band and we recommend going up a ring size for wider band styles.

Similarly, if you stack several rings together on the same finger, a larger and looser fit closer to your hand, while a slightly smaller size ring further away from your hand at the top of the stack will hold the other rings in place and retain comfort whilst worn.

Temperature will swell hands and fingers in warmer weather while the cold will contract them. Summer statement rings may be looser during winter months, while other favourite pieces may need to be worn on other fingers during holidays in the sun. Our fingers are also smaller in the morning and larger in the evening too, so do bare this in mind when choosing to take your measurements. Your dominant hand tends to be bigger too.

How to measure your ring size

The chart above has the inside circumference and diameter measurements for each ring size. If you have an existing ring measuring the inside diameter is the simplest way to find its size. Alternatively, using a ring sizer on your fingers will also give you your correct size.

A little like how Goldilocks likes her porridge, measure your fingers when they are not too hot nor too cold, but just about right in the middle of these extremes.

To measure your finger to find your ring size we recommend using a thin strip of paper, similar in width to a ring band. Due to the natural displacement of the finger tissue beneath your skin this will give a more accurate measurement than using something thinner, such as a piece of string or cotton. Mark the point on the paper strip where the overlap happens then lay flat against a ruler to measure this length. Check your measurement against our chart and pick the closest for your size.

If your knuckle is bigger than the base of your finger, measure both and choose a size between them.

We recommend repeating this process with fresh paper strips several times to ensure an accurate as possible measurement and size choice is made.

If you are between sizes it is always advisable to go up a ring size.

Caring for your Jewellery

Fine silver is 99.9% silver and our silver is usually between 96- 99%. Sterling silver in comparison is 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper and other mixed metals. The purity of fine silver means it will tarnish (oxidise) less quickly than sterling silver and if you are sensitive to metals, Luna Tree jewellery, with its purity will not irritate sensitive skins.

Our jewellery is always nickel free.

All items over 7.78 grams are purity tested and hallmarked at the Birmingham Assay Office.

Luna Tree silver loves to be worn and wearing your pieces will keep them shining. When not being worn we recommend storing your jewellery in air tight containers away from sunlight in a cool dry place. Avoid contact with harsh chemicals such as hairspray, perfume and deodorant. Do not wear your jewellery when gardening, doing DIY, or bathing. Swimming pool chemicals will bring unwanted changes to the appearance of silver.

Clean your jewellery with a silver cleaning cloth when required. These are available from all high street jewellers and online merchants.

Luna Tree recommends the Talk Town silver cloth.

Deep Cleaning

For a deeper clean, to remove bacteria, submerge your silver jewellery in warm water with a little washing up liquid. This is all that is required as a cleaning solution. Soak your silver for about 30 minutes in the solution and use a soft toothbrush to gently clean. Rinse in fresh clean water and pat dry before buffing with a silver cloth. Gemstone jewellery can be safely cleaned this way too.

Luna Tree was established in 2007 selling fair trade, handmade, silver jewellery.

We have a simple philosophy at Luna Tree ' You are unique, your jewellery should be too'.

Built on deep rooted ethics of trade justice and environmental sustainability, we work directly with a community of Hill Tribe silversmiths in Thailand. Here we work in a collaborative way on the jewellery designs, while the village silversmiths run as a cooperative.

The jewellery is all recycled fine silver, produced with traditional silversmithing techniques and hand tools. This hands on approach gives the pieces a uniqueness all their own and an organic feel.

Luna Tree has been a continuous member of BAFTS The Fair Trade Network UK since 2009 and we are also a (Silver Status) Surfers Against Sewage Plastic Free Champion.

Everything we sell is suitable for vegans.
