Conflict Free Diamonds

even though these diamonds are no longer considered conflict diamonds I still find it very difficult to support this. It is unbelievable to me that people think a diamond is a sign of love!! if you are that person, you really need to check your definition of 'love.'

This is Danielle from Brilliant Earth. Great clip! If you are searching for that perfect, it’s very important to consider the ring’s origins. It’s a good idea to ask the following questions in order to avoid loopholes.

1. What are your conflict diamond policies?
2. Where can I find your policy stated or published?
3. How do you define conflict free?
4. Do you provide official certification of conflict free status?
5. Where do your diamonds originate from? In what conditions are they mined, cut, and polished?
6. How are your diamonds tracked from the mine to cutting and polishing
to your store?

Look for a clear and definitive, conflict free diamond policy in writing or available to read online. The policy should not only cover Kimberley Process compliance, but should also address violence, child labor, environment standards. You should be confident that your diamond has been fully tracked and monitored, and has the independent certification to prove it.

Canada is one of the leaders of ethically sourced diamonds, and their social and environmental standards are light-years ahead of many other diamond rich countries that are currently involved in the diamond industry. Other sources of ethical origin diamonds are also beginning to become available, such as ethical origin diamonds that are mined, cut, and polished in Namibia with fair labor and strong environmental practices.

What’s most important is that you continue to ask where diamonds originate from, and under what conditions. Thanks again for the great clip!

Warm Regards, Danielle

Doesn't completely answer how it is that you can confirm they conflict free, what do you look for on the paper that couldn't be forged.

I say buy an heirloom diamond or not at at all.

I also want to applaud you for this video I had no idea of how I could purchase a conflict free diamond now I do. Thank you.
