The average ring size for&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/4cs.gia.edu\/en-us\/engagement-ring-buying-guide\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">women in the U.S. is 6<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but common measurements range from 4&frac12; to 7&frac12;. Sizes may vary depending on the brand, designer, or location. You can measure your ring size with a&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.grownbrilliance.com\/education-guide\/finding-your-ring-size\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ring sizer tool<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;or use a&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.grownbrilliance.com\/images\/ringsizer-guide.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">printable ring sizer<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;online.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have your size, consider the width and thickness of the band.

Taking good care of it will ensure it lasts a lifetime. Use the following tips to keep your engagement ring and wedding band in excellent condition:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove your wedding band before engaging in activities that might scratch or damage it, such as sports, swimming or household cleaning.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid exposing your wedding band to harsh chemicals and abrasives. Keep it away from compounds like chlorine and ammonia, and limit exposure to acids from vinegar and lemon juice.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Store your wedding band separately from other jewelry to prevent scratches and damage. For example, keep your rings in a velvet-lined compartment in a jewelry box when you take them off.&nbsp;<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For gold or platinum wedding bands, put the items in a mixture of water and mild soap or specialized jewelry cleaner. Let the rings sit for&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/how-to-clean-gold-jewelry-4690786\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">about 20 minutes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, then gently scrub them with a soft-bristled toothbrush. Rinse your rings under warm water and dry them with a soft, cotton or microfiber cloth.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inspect your wedding band regularly for signs of wear or damage. If you notice loose settings, dents or scratches, take it to a professional jeweler for cleaning or repairs. These simple steps can help keep your wedding band as beautiful as the day you first wore it.<\/span><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-51efc1f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"51efc1f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Find_the_Perfect_Ring_With_Grown_Brilliance\"><\/span><b>Find the Perfect Ring With Grown Brilliance<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grown Brilliance is committed to providing our customers with high-quality, ethically sourced lab grown diamonds.
