English term or phrase: scale
Hi!

I was wondering what "scale" means in this context. Thank you very much in advance!

"[BRAND NAME] is jewelry that you want to touch and feel. The wide range of *scale*, shape and texture in the collection allows people to put pieces together in a way that expresses their sensibility and personality."
