eheringkaufen.ch (Stargold)

eheringkaufen.ch is not Stargold's main storefront, it is the company's second one. The same Zürich jeweller runs stargold.ch, listed separately in this guide's Vintage and Estate Dealers category for its pre-owned watch and gold trade, but eheringkaufen.ch is a distinct site built around one job: wedding bands and engagement rings, nothing else. Both trade under Stargold Trading GmbH, both work out of the same address, Limmatquai 108 in Zürich's Altstadt, a 5-minute walk from the Hauptbahnhof, and the two sites even share one terms-and-conditions page, a line of which still refers to a used watch's manufacturer warranty, a sign the two shops share one back office rather than being built from scratch twice. Stargold dates the business to 1996, and its About page describes itself as "family- and owner-operated" with "nearly 30 years of experience", a small team rather than a chain store.

What's on the rails

The wedding-band range (Eheringe) is organised by brand: Rauschmayer, Breuning, Saint Maurice and Bömer Jaeger sit alongside Stargold's own house line. Engagement rings (Verlobungsringe) split into two families, Solitär for a single-stone setting and Memoire for a row of smaller stones, again spanning Rauschmayer, Breuning and the in-house label. Metal runs from 9 karat (375) through 14 karat (585) to 18 karat (750) gold in white, yellow or rose finishes, with platinum also mentioned on the About page, and several models let you choose between natural diamonds and lab-grown diamonds at the point of ordering.

Prices sit on the product page itself, with no request-a-quote gate to get past first. A half-memoire band from Breuning in 14 or 18 karat gold with 0.51 ct of lab-grown diamonds starts at CHF 1,039 and runs to CHF 1,808 depending on metal and stone. An engagement ring described as having a diamond in a claw setting runs CHF 1,290 to CHF 1,680 across 9 and 14 karat white gold. At the upper end shown on the homepage, a Saint Maurice eternity ring set with a 0.6 ct diamond spans CHF 1,658 to CHF 6,418 across its karat options, and a Rauschmayer Wind Bell wedding band set with 13 diamonds (0.13 ct total) runs CHF 2,310 to CHF 4,420 in rose gold. Rauschmayer's line also has its own configurator, linked straight from the main menu, though the tool loads as a script rather than static content, so the site's own pages don't spell out exactly which parameters (width, profile, stone count) it lets you adjust before you open it.

Financing, payment and delivery

Where Stargold pushes hardest is on payment flexibility. Its financing page lays out an interest-free instalment plan up to CHF 12,000, with a choice of 6, 12, 24, 36 or 48-month terms, no processing fee and, in the site's own words, no hidden cost beyond the ring's price spread across the months you pick. Applications are answered, the site says, on the same day as a rule, and once approved you collect the ring in person at Limmatquai 108 rather than wait on a courier. For anyone paying outright, checkout also accepts Mastercard, Visa, PayPal, Twint, Postfinance, bank transfer, invoice through the POWERPAY provider, Apple Pay and Google Pay, a wider spread of options than most boutique jewellers bother listing on a single page.

Delivery itself is free and insured up to CHF 5,000 via Swiss Post, with a signature required on receipt, but it only reaches addresses in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. That is the detail worth flagging if you are buying from outside the country, or expect to leave Switzerland soon after: the shop's own terms restrict online orders to residents of Switzerland and Liechtenstein and say nothing about export paperwork or customs duty, so a ring bought here needs to be collected or delivered while you are still resident, not shipped on to a new address abroad.

Booking a consultation as a newcomer

Stargold keeps genuinely long hours for a Zürich jeweller, Monday to Friday from 09:00 to 19:00 and Saturday from 09:00 to 17:00, covering an evening after work and a full Saturday if your job doesn't allow weekday time off. Consultations happen in person in what the site calls its lounge overlooking the Limmat, or over WhatsApp, phone or email if you would rather not visit before deciding anything. One thing worth checking before you book: the site itself runs in German only, with no English toggle anywhere in its language switcher, so if you would rather consult in English it is worth confirming that by WhatsApp or phone first, rather than assuming either way going in.

Beyond the sale itself, the services page lists engraving of names, dates or a chosen message, professional ring-size measurement, cleaning, polishing and surface refinishing, and what it calls personal ring redesign over time, meaning later alterations or extensions as a ring needs to change alongside its owner, plus an express service for anyone who needs a faster turnaround than usual. None of these service pages publish a specific turnaround time or a separate fee for resizing or engraving, so if either matters to your planning, ask at the consultation rather than assume a figure the site itself hasn't put in writing. The site also runs a full account and shopping-cart system rather than a static brochure, with an online appointment-booking page, a wish list and a running blog of wedding and ring-buying guides that was still being updated in the summer of 2026, evidence the business is actively trading rather than coasting on an old site.

Where it falls short

The one real catch for anyone used to shopping cross-border is the return policy. Stargold's own terms and conditions state plainly that there is no right of return and that exchanges are not accepted once a ring has been received, with the purchase treated as final at that point; whatever warranty applies is the manufacturer's own, since the shop's terms exclude its own guarantee. That is standard for a small Swiss retailer selling made-to-measure jewellery, rather than an EU webshop bound by a statutory cooling-off period, but it is worth knowing before you order: measure carefully at the consultation and treat the confirmation email as the final word on the piece you're getting.

The verdict

For a wedding-and-engagement-ring purchase specifically, rather than the mixed inventory of a general jeweller, eheringkaufen.ch has real strengths: prices posted upfront in Swiss francs on every product, an interest-free financing plan that goes well beyond a token gesture, five ring brands to choose between plus an in-house line, and a shop a 5-minute walk from the station with hours that stretch into the evening and through Saturday. Buy and collect before you leave Switzerland rather than after, since both the shipping terms and the return policy assume you are staying, and confirm your preferred consultation language ahead of a visit, since the site itself only publishes in German. None of that is a reason to skip a jeweller that has been doing exactly this, at exactly this address, since 1996.
