A Boyd Tsosie Turquoise Ring in Sterling Silver

The serrated bezel grips the turquoise with a sawtooth edge and adds texture around the stone, so the center holds the eye. The inlaid ring of coral, lapis, turquoise, and sugilite then frames it in red, blue, and purple, the palette Tsosie is known for.

The top measures 1 in. long and ⅞ in. wide, a bold size on the hand, and the band tapers to ¼ in. so the ring stays comfortable to wear. It is a size 8.

About Boyd Tsosie

Boyd Tsosie is a Navajo jeweler, born in 1954, who began making jewelry at sixteen. He refined his silversmithing under Kenneth Begay at Navajo Community College. In the 1970s, he and his brother Richard Tsosie were part of a new wave of Native American jewelers, and in 1979 Arizona Highways featured them in its collector’s edition “The New Look in Indian Jewelry.” Known for impeccable craftsmanship and intricate inlay, his work has been shown in “Jewels of the Southwest” at the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture in Santa Fe and appears in books by Jerry and Lois Jacka and Lois Sherr Dubin. Today, a Boyd Tsosie turquoise ring is a bold example of that inlay.

Ring Sizing Guide: How to Measure Your Ring Size Accurately

Ring Sizing Guide – How to Measure Your Ring Size Accurately

Finding the right ring size is essential when purchasing fine, handmade jewelry, especially one-of-a-kind pieces that may not be resizable. Use this simple guide to measure your ring size at home and shop with confidence at Faust Gallery.

How to Measure Your Ring Size at Home

You can determine your ring size in a few easy ways using common items or by measuring a ring you already own.

Option 1: Measure Your Finger with a Strip of Paper or String

What you’ll need: a thin strip of paper, a ruler (millimeters), and a pen.

  1. Wrap the paper around the base of the finger where you’ll wear the ring.
  2. Mark the point where the ends overlap.
  3. Measure the length (in millimeters) with a ruler—this is your finger’s circumference.
  4. Use the chart below to find your U.S. ring size.

Tip: The paper should fit snugly but still be able to slide over your knuckle.

Option 2: Measure a Ring That Fits You

What you’ll need: a ring that fits the intended finger and a millimeter ruler or caliper.

  1. Place the ring on a flat surface.
  2. Measure the inside diameter straight across the center in millimeters.
  3. Compare that number to the chart below.

Ring Sizing Tips for the Best Fit

  • Measure at the end of the day – your fingers naturally swell and shrink.
  • Avoid measuring cold hands – cold temperatures cause fingers to contract.
  • Wider bands fit more snugly – consider sizing up ¼ to ½ size for rings wider than 6mm.
  • Your dominant hand may be larger – double-check if you’re switching hands.
  •  If you’re in between sizes, it’s safer to go up a half size.

Can Rings Be Resized?

Many of the rings at Faust Gallery are handmade by renowned Native American and contemporary jewelers using inlay, stone settings, or tufa cast techniques. Some of the designs are often not resizable due to their intricate construction. We always recommend measuring accurately before purchasing.
