Pear Ring

I just received it in Size 5 and it is rolling all over my finger. I'm wondering if this runs big or it I received a Size 6 by mistake. Any one else get this? If so, how does it fit? Does it run true to size on you? I did not have time to go to jeweler to have it measured yet. It's a great ring, but if this is a Size 5 it will have to be sized down. Thanks.

I suspect they shipped the wrong size. Can you exchange it?

Places like Kohl's, WalMart, JCP, Kmart all have mandrels behind the counter to check ring sizing. I carry one in my purse when shopping at flea and antique markets. Sometimes, my fingers are too swollen to be able to decide if a ring fits. This way, I verify the size before buying. They're inexpensive.

I also carry a set of metal finger sizing gauges. Sometimes, I want to check sizing of one of the grands or greats if I plan to give them a family ring.

You can get a mandrel from ebay pretty cheap.

I took a JR ring to be re sized at my local jeweler and he said he wouldn't touch it. He said it looked ""mystery metal"" to him (I have dealt with him for years)-so I sent it back!

Thanks for the info on the mandrels.
