The secret to enhancing your hands is playing with proportions. For short fingers , opt for elongated shapes (oval, pear) or thin rings that show off the knuckle. For fuller or plump fingers , dare to wear volume: a wide, domed ring will visually slim the hand, whereas a very thin ring risks making it look bulky. Finally, very slender fingers can pull off almost anything, especially layering to add volume to the hand.
1. Love your hands: There are no "bad" fingers
We all have insecurities: fingers we think are too short, knuckles too wide, hands too small... Yet, in the world of jewelry, flaws don't exist, only the wrong choice of jewelry. Just as a dress can sculpt a silhouette, a well-chosen ring can transform the look of your hand.
At Maison de l'Amour , we create a variety of designs (thin, wide, adjustable) so that every woman can find the perfect ring for her finger.
Each hand has its ideal ring. The important thing is balance.
2. The Morpho Guide: Which ring is right for you?
Identify your finger type and discover the visual trick to highlight them.
Case #1: I have short fingers or small hands
The goal: To visually lengthen the phalanx and ventilate the hand.
Tip: Avoid rings that are too wide, as they "swallow" the knuckle and make the finger appear shorter. Opt instead for:
- The thin and delicate rings ( Gwladys Ring ).
- Vertical shapes (ovals, elongated rectangles: Manon type) .
- Open rings (you and me) that reveal the skin ( Monica ring ).
Case #2: I have strong or slightly "chubby" fingers
The goal: To slim without compressing.
The trick: It's counterintuitive, but you need volume ! A ring that's too thin will dig into the skin and create an unsightly "puffy" effect. A wide, domed, or textured ring will draw the eye to the metal and make the finger appear slimmer by contrast.
Example: Tatiana ring , Amanda ring
Case #3: I have very long and thin fingers
The objective: To expand and dress up.
The trick: You're lucky, everything suits you. But beware of overly minimalist rings that can disappear. Dare to stack them (several rings on one finger) or very wide "statement" rings to break up the length.
3. Summary: Mistakes to avoid
To help you at a glance, here is the summary table.
| Morphology | YES (Sublime) ✅ | NO (To be avoided) ❌ |
|---|---|---|
| Short Fingers | Thin rings, oval stones, V shapes. | Very wide band rings that conceal the skin. |
| Strong Fingers | Domed, asymmetrical, adjustable rings. | Ultra-thin rings that are too tight. |
| Large Joints | Adjustable Rings (the secret!). | Rigid rings that are difficult to fit. |
4. The Magic Solution: The Adjustable Ring
If you have knuckles (joints) that are wider than the base of your finger, or if your fingers swell with heat, online shopping can be a headache.
That's why a large part of the Maison de l'Amour collection consists of adjustable rings. Made of flexible yet robust stainless steel, they can be opened or closed to perfectly fit your finger, whatever its shape or the time of day.
