Online ring shopping to treat myself

[okilay]

I'm looking to buy myself a ring and was considering going to a nearby jewellery quarter but as I've been having a nosy at their websites I've seen websites for online only retailers that are significantly cheaper.

Has anyone used any and can recommend, or should I avoid and visit a bricks and mortar jewellers?

You need to specify your budget and some indication of what you're looking for her.

But in the meantime I can recommend this jeweller.

Hmm. I ended up buying my DP’s engagement ring online, after a few physical visits and browsing. I’m not sure whether it’s cheaper though, I just prefer online shopping I think. I used https://www.jacquelineandedward.com/ who were wonderful.
for myself, I often buy from Monica Vinader or PDPAOLA. Not individual / unique pieces but I have always found lots I like.

@IHaveNeverLivedintheCastle Can you provide a link, I can't see one but I'm on the app which might be the problem.

Budget 2k max, yellow gold prob 14k, with precious gems.

I added a link and it's showing. I use mobile but not the app.

Lovely! Not quite what I'm looking for but beautiful jewellery.

Online jewelers often offer lower prices due to reduced overhead. Just be sure to check for certifications, return policies, and customer reviews. I found wonderful options with all of these at Friendly Diamonds.

Have you considered second hand vintage, I spend a lot of time browsing eBay as I prefer vintage styles. I bought a vintage sapphire and diamond ring in 18k yellow gold for £85 a while back. It's lovely, I keep meaning to get it valued to see if its genuine or not, but it looks nice enough that for the price I paid it really doesn't matter what it is made of!
