10 Best Stores for Engagement Rings in the Netherlands

1. James Allen

One of the biggest, trustworthy ecommerce bridal jewellery shop for bespoke diamond rings

Founded in 2006, James Allen has pioneered the way consumers shop for fine jewelry online. Their mission – to offer the highest quality conflict-free diamonds and the largest selection. Hence, they have over 200,000 diamonds, certified by one of the top grading laboratories: GIA, AGS, and IGI. James Allen has become the largest privately held online diamond and bridal jewelry retailer in the world.

Customising your very own unique engagement or wedding ring

What we absolutely love about James Allen is that you get to design your own engagement rings three ways – either starting with the ring setting, or commencing with the diamond of your choice, or a fancy gemstone of your choice. I highly recommend browsing through their website even if it is simply for inspiration; it’s a really well-thought-out website for rings.

They also feature wedding rings, as well as fine jewellery for gifts. Moreover, be sure to check out their comprehensive education centre. There’s tons of information readily available (some of which I knew before I proposed!).

Excellent customer service with 100% money back guarantee

What’s great about James Allen is that they have one of the best customer service standards for jewellery companies. This definitely helps with the fact that you are purchasing a ring online – spending at least four figures just with a click of a button! James Allen features 24/7 customer service, lifetime warranty, free shipping worldwide, and hassle-free returns with 100% money back guarantee within 30 days, no questions asked. Coupled with their excellent reviews, we find them trustworthy and reliable.

All the best with your proposal folks!

2. Brilliant Earth

When it comes to ethically sourced fine jewellery, Brilliant Earth is definitely the way to go.

Once you discover the ring that you love, Brilliant Earth’s international shipping service is really reliable, with free FedEx shipping, free 30 Day returns and resizes for all UK orders. You may also ask them to help design a piece of custom jewellery just for you!

The best part about choosing Brilliant Earth is that they use 100% recycled precious metals and conflict-free mined diamonds in crafting their jewellery pieces, so you can wear them with peace of mind. And if you want to dazzle up your ring further, add some lab-created diamonds which come either coloured or colourless. Whether you want one with a vivid yellow or intense pink diamond, we are so sure that you’d find something you love!

Moreover, we like how the sustainability promise does not end in their products alone. From the iconic wooden boxes to the post-consumer recycled content for all the shipping packaging – Brilliant Earth is undeniably brilliant.
