How to measure for the right-sized bangle

There are 3 ways to measure bangle size:

1. Measure your hand circumference to get the right-sized closed bangle.

2. Measure your wrist for cuff styles, hinged bangles or open bangles that are meant to fit snugly around your wrist or just above it.

3. Measure a Bangle that fits you well to find its diameter.

You will need…

A flexible measuring tape or a piece of ribbon or string and a straight ruler

or

A bangle that fits you well

1. Measuring your hand width

Step 1: To measure the hand, position it as though putting on a bangle (tuck your thumb into the palm of your hand)

Step 2: Wrap the measuring tape around the knuckles including the thumb knuckle. Note the measurement at the point of overlap. This is your exact hand circumference/size.

2. Measure your wrist size

Step 1: Wrap the tape measure around the wrist bone, so that it fits snugly without feeling too tight or too loose.

Step 2: Mark where the tape measure overlaps. This is the exact circumference of your wrist.

Note: You can substitute the measuring tape with a string or ribbon and use a straight ruler to measure the length from the point of overlap to the end.

3. Measuring the diameter of an existing bangle that fits you well.

Place a straight ruler over the bangle and measure across its middle from one inner edge to the other. The measurement in mm/cm/inches will give you the correct size in internal diameter.

If you have a bangle that fits you well, we recommend you measure its internal diameter and this measurement will be your guide as to which size bangle you need.
