Why does Black Friday 2026 fall on November 27?

The date of Black Friday follows a fixed rule from the United States.

The Friday after Thanksgiving

Black Friday is always the Friday after Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving falls on the fourth Thursday of November. In 2026, that is Thursday, November 26. The following day, Friday, November 27, is therefore Black Friday.

From American tradition to Dutch shopping day

We do not celebrate Thanksgiving in the Netherlands. Even so, Black Friday has now become one of the busiest shopping days of the year here. Online stores and high streets take part on a large scale. As a result, many more people look for jewellery in November than in other months.

How long do the Black Friday deals last in 2026?

Most stores turn Black Friday into a short period rather than a single day.

Black Week from November 23 through 27

More and more stores start a Black Week on Monday, November 23. You will then see new offers every day. Sometimes the discounts even start the weekend before. So check the websites you follow regularly from mid-November onwards.

The Black Friday weekend and Cyber Monday

Friday is followed by the Black Friday weekend on Saturday, November 28, and Sunday, November 29. Cyber Monday then brings the period to a close on Monday, November 30. Cyber Monday was originally created for online stores. Now almost all webshops take part. All in all, the period often lasts from one week to ten days.

When do the discounts end?

Most deals end after Cyber Monday. Some stores extend them for a few more days, but you can never be sure. So do not wait too long if you see something beautiful. Popular colours and bead sizes often sell out first.

When is the smartest time to buy jewellery around Black Friday?

With a little preparation, you can get more out of the Black Friday period.

Make a wish list in advance

A few weeks before Black Friday, look at which pieces of jewellery you want. Pay attention to the style, colour and size. For example, a beaded bracelet has a standard length of 18 cm. If you already know the size, you can place your order in just a few clicks.

Check the Black Friday collection in good time

Many stores prepare their deals in advance on a dedicated page. Here, you can find all our Black Friday jewellery in one place. It includes beaded bracelets, necklaces, earrings, pendants and gemstone rings. Save the page so you can immediately see when the discount goes live.

Think about the gift-giving month of December

Black Friday falls just before Sinterklaas and Christmas. That is why many people buy all their gifts at that time. If you order from us before 3:00 p.m., your package will be shipped the same day. Every piece of jewellery arrives beautifully packaged and ready to give.

What does Black Friday mean for jewellery in 2026?

Black Friday is an especially interesting time for jewellery, because you are buying something for the long term.

A piece of jewellery lasts for years

You do not wear a good piece of jewellery for just one season. You wear it for years, with all kinds of outfits. Since 2014, we have designed our jewellery in the Netherlands. Our founder considers quality, comfort and timeless design in every creation. As a result, a piece of jewellery remains beautiful and wearable even after the holidays.

Expand with Mix & Match

With the Mix & Match concept, you can freely combine individual bracelets, necklaces, pendants and earring gemstones. Black Friday is a great time to create a foundation. You can expand it step by step later. For example, an individual earring gemstone can be attached to an earring, and a pendant gemstone can also be used as an earring. This gives you many combinations with just a few pieces. For inspiration, take a look at the jewellery trends of 2026.
