Conflict-Free Diamonds: How to Shop with a Clear Conscience

So, you are looking for the perfect diamond for your special someone or occasion? You are more than likely wondering whether it is possible to find a conflict-free diamond. Purchasing ethically sourced diamonds is becoming increasingly popular as people become more aware of the negative effects that come from buying diamonds sourced from unethical mines and conflict zones. It is important to inform yourself about what makes a conflict-free diamond, where to find one and how to make sure you are a responsible consumer when purchasing your ethical diamond ring.

When you buy from the right places, the diamond industry is used to fund economic development and support small artisanal miners. Make sure you purchase your diamond ring from reputable jewellers like Philippe Harold who have undergone independent auditing for all required certifications. You can contact us directly if you have further questions about our sourcing policies and certifications.

Overall, being certain that your diamond ring is sourced ethically does not need to be difficult – just remember to do your research before purchasing! With our knowledgeable team, you will be able to make an informed decision about choosing an ethical conflict-free diamond ring that will become a symbol of love for years to come!

Trusted Organisations

Conflict-free diamonds come from legal sources and countries that respect human rights and comply with international standards such as the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme (KPCS). These diamonds are mined in conditions that are free of violence or any kind of exploitation, ensuring that no human life has been put at risk in the production process. In addition, these diamonds do not finance any form of armed conflict or civil war, which is why they offer an ethical alternative to traditional diamonds.

Organizations such as the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC) ensure that the diamonds meet their fair trade requirements and follow an ethical code of practice when it comes to production, labour practices and environmental protection. It is vital that you look for certification from trusted organizations.

The Beauty of Recycled and Antique Diamonds

Consider how recycled and antique diamonds offer an ethical alternative to newly-mined, conflict diamonds, providing a way for jewellery shoppers to support responsible practices in diamond production. These pre-owned stones have been previously mined, cut, and polished before being resold. Not only do they provide a beautiful option for luxury jewellery shoppers, like you, who want to avoid sourcing new diamonds from conflict areas, but they also offer incredible value for money. Purchasing recycled and antique diamonds does not contribute to the demand for new stones, instead it helps preserve resources already in existence by keeping older gems out of landfills or storage facilities and allowing them to live on in new pieces of jewellery. More importantly you are helping to reduce the environmental impact associated with mining new stones as well as supporting the livelihoods of working miners around the world by ensuring that no one is producing new diamonds for unethical reasons.

Discovering Diamonds

As you can see, conflict free diamonds offer so much more than simply beauty and luxury. They are a reminder of the tremendous story our planet has to offer and the unique journey each diamond takes for its creation. Not only do you get a beautiful diamond, but also the peace of mind knowing it was ethically sourced. So if you are searching for a sparkling symbol of true love, be sure to book a real life or virtual appointment. Philippe Harold proudly participates in the Kimberley Process and will provide information about their origins. Doing so means you can purchase diamonds with a clear conscience, while discovering all the joy they bring!
