Size Guide
Sizing is a very important component of choosing the perfect jewelry for your ears and/or body. You will find the exact dimensions and sizing information in each jewelry product page. We use the European standard centimeters (cm) and millimeters (mm) as a reference. Here is a guide to sizing for our various jewelry categories.

Light Weight — 10 grams or less
Suitable for everyday use and will not cause your lobes to stretch. Perfect if you like a weightless feeling when wearing your jewelry.
Middle Weight — 11 grams to 15 grams
Confortable for everyday use but might cause your lobes to stretch. Better if you are accustomed to wearing quite heavy jewelry. Avoid wearing for long time if you do not wish to stretch your ears.
Heavy Weight — 16 grams or more
Can be considered as ear weights. Everyday use will cause your lobes to stretch. This is suitable for those who like very heavy jewelry and/or want to keep stretching their ears.

Sizes
You do not know your ring size ? No problem ! You’ll find here 2 different methods to measure it.
First : use a ring that fits you (and that is perfectly round, avoid old oval rings) :
- Measure with a ruler (mm) the inner diameter of your ring.
- Be precise ! Each 0,5mm count, so do not round up the result.
- Refer to the above chart to know the corresponding ring size.
Second: you do not have ring ? You can directly measure your finger :
- Wrap string or paper around the base of your finger.
- Mark the point where the ends meet with a pen.
- Measure the string or paper with a ruler (mm).
- The result corresponds to the size FR in the above chart.

In our shop you will find threadless jewelry sold in two separated parts. You choose first the ends you like and then match it with the right size posts you need. All of our ends have universal fit. They go in any of our threadless post, whatever size you choose.
What are threadless jewelry ? There are no threads (or screw) in threadless jewelry. The decorative end has a strong pin that protrudes to fit into the post. This pin is bent and the tension caused by the bend of the pin within the post holds the jewelry together.
