About Us

Jewelry Shopping Guide was founded back in 2016 by a team of jewelry enthusiasts and experts with years of experience. It was established with the aim of providing clear, impartial, and informative guides on jewelry shopping. True to our name, we focused on simplicity, honing in on what truly matters to our readers.

At the time, there were very few blogs doing what we did with the level of comprehensiveness and quality that we offered. So, we very quickly grew into becoming one of the leading jewelry platforms. We have guides on everything, from buying vintage Roman jewelry to modern engagement rings, and everything in between!

Now, we’ve watched the digital world explode with jewelry blogs (seems like every jewelry store has one!). But here’s our difference: We’re committed to unbiased guidance. We champion products and services not because someone pays us to or because we benefit from a sale, but because we’d happily wear or use them ourselves. It’s a simple formula, and it’s our north star.

Because we partner with a diverse spectrum of trusted retailers both online and brick-and-mortar, it allows us a broad view of the market, ensuring our recommendations are objective. We only endorse products and services we’d choose for ourselves, those we can back without reservation.

We’re committed to providing original, well-researched articles on a range of topics, and we update our site regularly to keep with the trends. And we promise – every guide is written by HUMANS for HUMANS – no AI guides here.

Since those early days, Jewelry Shopping Guide has gone on to be featured in numerous publications, and has helped thousands of readers with their jewelry and diamond concerns.
