In June 2014, Ritani announced that the former Blue Nile CEO Diane Irvine had joined the company's board of directors.[citation needed] Ritani's independent jewelry store partners network has over 180 locations across the United States and Canada.[citation needed] The focus of "clicks and bricks" is to assist the customer in ring design,[4][unreliable source?] Ritani also offers a free in-store preview[5] and has an inventory of over 60,000 diamonds ranging in price from $184 to $1.7 million.[6]
