What Are Ethical Diamonds?
May 22, 2020

Almost everyone who comes to buy Diamonds asks about the origin of the Diamond stones. It is understandably one of the most critical concerns.

At White Dazzle, we actively make sure to purchase ethically sourced Diamonds. We take special care that we deal with the suppliers working within the Kimberley Process Scheme to source the Diamond that has been processed by a participant of this scheme.

The Kimberley Process Scheme rolled out in 2002 and has been diligently working towards completely uprooting the illegal Diamond trade. Even though conflict Diamonds still exist, about 99% of the world's Diamond supply is now legal.

Ethical Diamonds have been mined following humanitarian mining practices, including fair wages and proper conditions when mining raw Diamonds. When we say "ethical Diamonds," we mean that the mining procedure of the Diamonds is not compromised.

The purest form of Diamonds are those that are sourced from underground mines and the riverbeds. There is risk revolving around the next stage of Diamond after it is extracted ethically. Some people might conduct some impure alterations to the Diamonds.

Generally, people are conscious because they assume that conflict Diamonds taint the Diamond mining industry. However, what most people miss to realize is how conflict-free Diamonds are benefitting the developing countries from where the Diamonds are being mined, improving the livelihoods of millions of people.

At White Dazzle, you are entitled to buy only the best Diamonds of supreme quality that have no history of any malpractice. Be it your engagement ring or other special occasion ring, the Diamond quality will not be compromised and will be conflict-free and ethically sourced.
