Description
Blue Nile was created in 1999 by a man in love. He wanted to propose to his significant other and had the nervous excitement we all feel for that person who is just ... right. But that excitement was met with frustration because of an outdated method for engagement ring shopping that only offered confusing information, limited choice, and commissioned salespeople. He knew there had to be a better way and founded Blue Nile based on a simple idea: Diamond engagement rings and fine jewelry should be fun, easy, and understandable. After all, they are meant for celebrating love.
This was a radical idea in the industry. That's how we knew it was right. More than 500,000 couples have said "yes" to a better way to buy diamond engagement rings and fine jewelry gifts. And if you want to be part of a company that's always blazed its own trail, we want to talk.
