Japanese ring sizes

Jewelry Discussion

I am still looking for a translation of Japanese ring size # 18 into
a U.S. size. I tried the Orchid archives, but all I could find was
something that came to a dead end in the Revere Academy site. Can
anyone out there help me? I have a client who has been waiting for
months for some action on his ring request.

http://www.titaniumconcepts.com/sizes.htm I copied this chart from
another site so I can’t say how accurate it is, but I’ve been using
it with no trouble.

Japanese 18 would be U.S. size 9

M’lou, I’m sorry that I didn’t see your original post. The reference
chart which I have says: Japanese 18 equals 8 1/4 American.

Japanese Ring Size 18 is equal to 8 1/2 US Ring Size. Their 19 is
equal to our 9. Happen to have a souvenier Ring Sizer from a Fellow
tool dealer from Tokyo.
