        How Do I Find Out My Ring Size?

        Measure a Ring You Already Own 

        You'll Need:

        • The ring
        • A ruler or tape measure
        • Our size chart (scroll to bottom)

        How to Measure:

        1. With your ruler or measuring tape, measure across the centre (also known as the internal diameter) in mm

        2. Use our size chart to determine what your ring size is

        Measure The Circumference of Your Finger

        You'll Need:

        • Your finger
        • A piece of thin paper, string or floss
        • A marker or pen
        • Ruler or measuring tape

        How to Measure:

        1. Wrap thin paper, string or floss around the base of your finger

        2. Mark where the thin paper, string or floss first overlaps

        3. Line up the thin paper, string or floss with your ruler or measuring tape and take down the measurement in mm

        4. Use the chart below to determine your ring size

        Ring Size in mm (Circumference) Diameter in mm US/Canada Ring Size
        44.2mm 14.1mm 3

        Things to Consider:

        2. Measure your fingers at the end of the day when they are at their largest ensuring your ring will fit all day long.

        3. If your knuckle is much bigger than the base of your finger, consider buying half a size up to ensure the ring can slide on your finger.

        4. Alcohol and salty foods may cause swelling and alter the size of your finger.

        How Do I Care For My Jewelry?

        We work with some of the most reputable jewelry suppliers across the Greater Toronto area to provide you with only the highest quality materials and pieces of jewelry.

        With relationships lasting for over 30 years we can assure you our promise of both high-quality and affordable pieces will be fulfilled. 

        Solid Gold

        solid gold

        Our solid gold pieces were made to be worn every day, forever & more. Solid gold is the only metal that won't tarnish, oxidize or discolour. Meaning you can wear them in the shower, while you exercise and even at the beach. 

        When people refer to gold jewelry, they really mean solid gold materials. In its pure form, solid gold is 24 karats and is the softest and most gentle metal. In most cases, it's very rare to find jewelry pieces made of 100% pure gold.

        Instead, other alloys are combined with gold in order to create the perfect combination of what we refer to as "solid gold." This combination includes both 18k, 14k and 10k solid gold. 

        When discussing gold materials, the karat indicates the parts of the piece that is pure gold in relation to other alloys.

        A 10k gold piece of jewelry is 10 parts solid gold, 14 parts alloys. Whereas a 14k gold piece of jewelry is 14 parts solid gold, 10 parts alloys, and so on. 

        Solid Gold Care

        Our solid gold jewelry pieces are water-proof, sweat-proof and everything-proof - they were made to be worn every day no matter what you do. Cleaning your gold jewelry at home is easy:

        1. Fill a shallow bowl with warm water
        2. Add a few drops of dish soap to the bowl and mix
        3. Place your piece(s) of jewelry in the bowl and set a timer for 5 minutes
        4. Mix periodically
        5. Take the jewelry out of the bowl and pat it dry on a clean towel

        For extra shine, take an old tooth brush and gently scrub at the piece of jewelry or buff it with a clean towel. Don't forget to store your pieces in a safe, dry place when taking them off.

        Sterling Silver

        sterling silver

        Our Sterling Silver pieces are plated in Rhodium, one of the most precious metals. Its plating allows these pieces to shine bright and be worn every day. 

        Sterling Silver is made up of 9.25% pure silver and 7.5% copper. 

        Sterling Silver Care

        To prolong the lifespan of your 925 Sterling Silver pieces, we will always recommend to remove them before showering, exercising or washing your hands as well as when applying any lotions, perfumes or other moist products. 

        To clean lightly buff your pieces with a clean towel and store them somewhere dry when taking them off. 

        Gold Plated

        gold plated

        When a piece of jewelry is gold plated, this means that a base metal has been plated or dipped in a layer of solid gold. 

        Although these pieces may appear similar to solid gold jewelry, because it is only plated in gold materials, they are more susceptible to fading and revealing its natural metal colour.

        While buying gold plated items is an affordable way to get the look of real gold, they do require more upkeep. 

        Gold Plated Care

        To prolong the lifespan of your gold plated pieces, we will always recommend to remove them before showering, exercising or washing your hands as well as when applying any lotions, perfumes or other moist products. 

        To clean lightly buff your pieces with a clean towel and store them somewhere dry when taking them off. 

        Gold Vermeil

        gold vermeil herringbone

        Gold vermeil is very similar to gold plating, but instead of dipping any metal in gold, we dip high-quality 925 sterling silver pieces in a thick layer of gold.

        For this reason, gold vermeil is considered a premium version of gold plating because of its thicker layer of gold plating. 

        Gold Vermeil Care

        While this is a more favourable option to gold plating, we still recommend removing your vermeil pieces before showering, exercising, washing your hands, or using any perfumes or lotions. 

        To clean lightly buff your pieces with a clean towel and store them somewhere dry when taking them off. 

        Cubic Zirconia

        cubic zirconia necklace

        Cubic Zirconia is a gemstone known for its similar look to a real diamond. These gemstones are often uses as pendants in necklaces, as earrings or even on rings. 

        Cubic Zirconia Care

        To clean your pieces that contain Cubic stones, follow the same care instructions for the material the rest of the piece is made from.

        Pay extra attention to buffing the stone itself with warm water and a brush or cloth to remove excess dirt. Store them somewhere dry when taking them off. 

        Diamonds

        diamond ring

        Diamonds are the most popular and most sought after gemstones. Because of their high-quality elements, our pieces made with diamonds will last a lifetime.

        We work with some of the finest diamond suppliers in the GTA ensuring our diamonds are ethically sourced and of the highest quality.

        Diamond Care

        For care, follow the same instructions for our solid gold materials while giving a special focus to brushing and rinsing the stone free of dirt and residue and don't forget to store them somewhere dry when taking them off. 

        A Message From The Dainty Team

        As implied from our name, many of the pieces in our collection are extremely dainty and should always be handled with care. Please remember to:

        • Pay attention when removing clothing, hats, or towels from the shower as they can get caught on these items. 

        • Avoid placing dainty necklaces in the same pouch or designated area as dainty chains may tangle. 

        • Store your pieces in a safe pouch, bag, or jewelry box to avoid scratching.
