SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brilliant Earth Group, Inc. ("Brilliant Earth" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:BRLT), an innovative, global leader in ethically sourced fine jewelry, today announced the expansion of its retail fleet with the opening of two new street-level showrooms in Boston, as well as the renovation of its Newbury Street location.

The second new Boston area showroom at the Seaport's newest shopping destination, "The Superette", is located at 254 B Street and is slated to open in November.

"The new Chestnut Hill and Seaport Brilliant Earth showrooms are milestones on our path of strategic expansion, bringing our personalized shopping experience directly to our customers."

With the opening of these two new Boston locations, customers from the wider New England area can conveniently visit a showroom in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, and the Back Bay and South Boston Waterfront neighborhoods near downtown Boston. Both new Boston showrooms will feature try-on bars, providing customers with a hands-on shopping experience. The welcoming floorplans of both locations are part of the ongoing evolution of Brilliant Earth's curated appointment experience and support the growing demand for the Company's fine jewelry business.
