Cape Town Sailing Signet Ring - Small
Nomad Avenue uses standard European ring sizes.
If you do not know your European ring size we suggest the following approach to finding the correct size:
You already own a ring
Measure the inner diameter of your ring in mm and find the corresponding Nomad Avenue size in the chart below.
Measure it as accurately as possible as a small measurement error may lead to a wrong ring size.
If the measured size falls in between two sizes we suggest going with the larger size.
You DO NOT already own a ring
If you do not own a ring you can measure we suggest using the following approach.
Take a 5 mm wide paper band (cut from a standard A4 piece or similar).
Wrap it firmly around your finger and mark the place where the paper meets itself with a pen.
Measure the length of the piece of paper from the mark you made to the end in mm to get the circumference.
Find the corresponding Nomad Avenue ring size in the size chart below.
If the measured size falls in between two sizes we suggest going with the larger size.

The Story Behind the Design
Cape town has one of Africa’s most visited waterfronts.
Indeed, the Victoria and Alfred Waterfront, situated in the oldest working harbour in the southern hemisphere has around 24 million visitors annually.
Prince Alfred, the second son of Queen Victoria, visited the Cape Colony Harbour in 1860 when he was a sixteen years old Royal Navy Midshipman.
His arrival on this gigantic ship was quite memorable and therefore the first basin of the new Navy Yard was named after him and the second after his mother.
What you can see on this manhole cover, located on this waterfront, is the beautiful silhouette of Alfred’s ship arriving at the harbour in 1860.
