About the Company

Blue Nile

Direct-to-consumer online diamond retailer

Blue Nile is an online retailer that sells diamonds and fine jewelry. It operates mainly through its website, letting customers browse, compare, and buy engagement rings, wedding bands, and other jewelry without visiting a physical store. The product experience is built around selecting a diamond and jewelry pieces online, with information on diamond grades and prices to help customers make informed choices, and then the items are shipped to the customer. The company differentiates itself by offering a large online selection and lower prices achieved through a direct-to-consumer model, avoiding many costs of traditional jewelers.
