One of the most exciting parts of planning a proposal is choosing the perfect engagement ring. The ring can say so much about your future spouse, but it’s important to choose one that suits her hand and personality.

How big is her hand?

The size of the ring will depend on how big or small your partner’s hands are. If she has small hands, then a large ring will look weird. On the other hand, if her hands are big, then a small ring may not be visible enough for her liking.

Small Hands

If your love has small hands, choose a ring with smaller diamonds. This will complement her delicate hand. Round-cut diamonds give the fingers an appearance of length and a diamond weight of 0.5 to 1 carat is a great option. To achieve a sleek and subtle style, choose a smaller diamond with a straightforward band. This engagement ring is proof that simple can be incredibly beautiful.

Large Hands

Larger hands can sport huge stones with elan. Look for a large stone and a broader band sized around 2.5 to 3 mm, for balance. Don’t be afraid to go bold. While round shaped diamonds represent eternity, you can also choose from diamond shapes like marquise, oval or pear to complement her pretty hand.

Short Fingers

For shorter fingers, you want a ring that can create a lengthening impression. You can achieve this with a cushion-cut, pear-shaped or marquise-shaped diamond. To make her hand appear more delicate, choose a diamond with a thin band, to give off an air of sophistication and grace.

Long Fingers

For hands with long slender fingers, a round or cushion-cut diamond gives an impression of fullness and balance. Opt for a larger diamond with a thicker band for a bold, more opulent appearance.

Wide Fingers

To balance broader fingers, you can select a ring with a wider band. A three-stone ring or one with side stones can help balance out the hand.

Finally, what matters the most are the preferences and personality of your special person. Buy her an engagement ring that she will want to wear every day and feels proud to show off to friends and family. Explore the collection from My Bridal Ring to find the perfect match.
