📏 Size Guide & Style Tips

My commitment: I select every piece in 316L surgical steel so it becomes a second skin. To guarantee absolute comfort and a perfect fit as soon as you open your box, here are my simple tips to follow at home using what you have on hand.

💍 1. Your Rings: Elegance at your fingertips

✨ The freedom of adjustable designs: Several of our rings feature an adjustable open band. They naturally adapt to your shape and can be worn on any finger according to your preferences or layering combinations (stacking).

📏 For our fixed-size rings, two quick methods:

• Method A — Using a ring you already wear (Recommended): Place your ring flat on a ruler and measure its inner diameter to the nearest millimeter (do not count the thickness of the metal, only the empty space).
• Method B — Using a strip of paper or string: Wrap a strip of paper around the base of your finger (without tightening it so it can pass over the knuckle), mark the point where it crosses with a pen, then measure the length when laid flat.

📋 Conversion chart:

Inner diameter	Circumference (strip length)	Your Maison Lumélia Size
16.5 mm	52 mm	Size 52
17.2 mm	54 mm	Size 54
17.8 mm	56 mm	Size 56
18.5 mm	58 mm	Size 58

💡 Style tip: If you are hesitating between two sizes, always choose the larger size. Fingers naturally tend to swell slightly in summer, after exercise, or at the end of an active day.

✨ 2. Your Necklaces: The art of layering & lengths

It all comes down to style and layering. Depending on your neckline or outfit, play with different lengths to create your own custom composition.

🛠️ The “DIY” tip for visualizing how it falls:

Take a piece of string or your phone charger cable, cut or hold it to the desired length, then place it around your neck while facing a mirror.

• 38 to 40 cm — Choker: Sits delicately in the hollow of the neck. The perfect base for starting a beautiful layered look.
• 42 to 45 cm — Standard Length (Princess): Falls fluidly at the collarbones. Ideal for enhancing a V-neck, round neck, or open shirt.
• 50 to 55 cm — Mid-Length (Matinée): Falls over the upper chest. The ideal length for wearing a pendant over a fall knit or a turtleneck.
• 60 cm and above — The Long Necklace: Elongates the silhouette and adds dimension to a structured blazer or flowing dress.

🔗 Adjustable length: Almost all my necklaces feature a 5 cm extension chain, allowing you to adjust the drop to the nearest millimeter depending on the garment you’re wearing.

🌿 3. Your Bracelets & Bangles: Finding the Right Fit

A bracelet should move with you comfortably: not too tight to avoid leaving marks on your skin, and not too loose so it doesn’t slip.

🧵 How to measure your wrist?

1. Wrap a flexible tape measure around your wrist (or use a piece of string and measure it afterward with a ruler) just above the bone, on the hand side.
2. Record the exact measurement without tightening.
3. Add the comfort allowance:
   • + 1 to 1.5 cm: For a snug, elegant fit.
   • + 2 cm: For a looser, more fluid fit.

• Small wrist: 15 to 16 cm (recommended bracelet length: 16 to 17.5 cm)
• Standard wrist: 17 to 18 cm (recommended bracelet length: 18 to 19.5 cm)

✨ The little extra: Like our necklaces, our flexible bracelets feature an extension chain. For our open rigid bangles, the natural flexibility of 316L steel lets you gently tighten or widen the piece for a perfect fit around your wrist.

👂 4. Your Earrings: Quick Visual Reference Points

To visualize the exact size of your hoop and stud earrings at a glance:

🪙 The coin size comparison:

• 10 to 12 mm (Mini hoops / Huggies): Equivalent to the size of a shirt button. Fits closely around the earlobe, perfect for everyday wear or styling a second piercing.
• 16 mm: The exact diameter of a 1-euro-cent coin. Discreet, refined, and timeless.
• 20 mm: The exact diameter of a 10-euro-cent coin. The perfect balance for catching the light without weighing down your features.
• 25 mm and above: The diameter of a 2-euro coin. A sculptural, bold silhouette that remains ultra-light when worn thanks to the fineness of our surgical steel.
