Find Your Perfect Bangle Size
Because a bangle that fits perfectly is a bangle worn forever.

A Note on Fit
“When in doubt, go one size up. Bangles should slide over your hand easily — they don't stretch, and they shouldn't pinch.”
Two Ways to Find Your Size
Choose the method that works best for you
Option 01
Measure an Existing Bangle
If you already own a bangle that fits you well, this is the easiest method.
- Place your bangle flat on a ruler
- Measure the inner diameter in centimetres (cm)
- Match your measurement to the size chart below
Option 02
Measure Your Hand
No bangle to reference? Measure your hand at its widest point.
- Bring your four fingers together, thumb tucked in
- Wrap a measuring tape around the widest part (at the knuckles)
- Note the circumference in cm, then divide by 3.14 to get your inner diameter
Formula: Inner Diameter = Hand Circumference ÷ 3.14
Example: 18.0 cm ÷ 3.14 = 5.73 cm → Size M

Important Notes
Between Sizes?
Always choose the larger size for a comfortable fit. Bangles should slide over your hand easily.
Where to Measure
Always measure at the widest part of your hand — the knuckles — not at the wrist.
Design Variations
Different bangle designs may have slight variations. Always refer to the product description for specific fit details.
