The display does not indicate how measurements are taken. I wasn't sure if the size refers to the overall size of the clip or the size of the part the clip will hold. I ended up buying 1/2, 3/4 and 1 inch just in case. the size of the piece that will fit in the clamp when open (I uploaded a picture). Hope this helps others. If so, please mark my review as helpful.
