Our Story/ Responsible Sourcing/ Beyond Conflict Free Diamond TM

Beyond Conflict Free TM Diamond

Our mission is to cultivate a more ethical, transparent, and sustainable jewelry industry.

Defining Beyond Conflict FreesmallTM

Jewelers that offer “conflict free” diamonds are limiting themselves to the Kimberley Process' definition, which narrowly defines conflict diamonds as rough diamonds used to finance wars against governments. What this definition leaves out is large numbers of diamonds that are tainted by violence, human rights abuses, poverty, environmental degradation, and other issues. We go beyond the usual standard to offer diamonds that have been carefully selected for their ethical and environmentally responsible origins. Learn more about the issues.

What Sets Us Apart

Engagement Rings goes above and beyond the current industry standards to offer Beyond Conflict Free TM Diamonds with a listed origin of Canada or Botswana Sort. Our select group of diamond suppliers demonstrate a robust chain of custody protocol for their diamonds and have the ability to track and segregate diamonds by origin

These suppliers are required to source diamonds that originate from specific mine operations or specific countries that have demonstrated their commitment to follow internationally recognized labor, trade, and environmental standards.

We also offer lab Created and recycled diamonds, both of which require no new mining. Learn More about our commitment to traceable diamond origins.

Transformational Blockchain Technology

Transformational Blockchain Technology

Engagement Rings was among the first jewelers to offer blockchain enabled diamonds at scale, and now offer thousands of blockchain-enabled diamonds. In partnership with Everledger, an industry-leading Blockchain technology enterprise, we’re defining next-generation standards in the jewelry industry and continuing our leadership in promoting transparency and responsibility.

The cutting-edge blockchain-based technology has been integrated with our supply chain to seamlessly and securely track gemstone origin and provide greater consumer assurance for responsible practices for a collection of blockchain enabled diamonds.

GIA Origin Report Diamonds

For a collection of diamonds, Engagement Rings includes the GIA Diamond Origin Report to help trace the diamond from its source to its final polished state by uniquely leveraging advanced scientific analysis to deliver technical rough-to-polish diamond matching. GIA collects and analyzes physical measurements, spectroscopic data, and imaging of the diamond as a rough crystal before it is cut and polished. A unique identification number is assigned to the rough diamond. GIA later uses this data to scientifically match the polished diamond to the original rough crystal it came from.

Lab Created Diamonds

Lab created diamonds are grown in highly controlled laboratory environments using advanced technological processes that duplicate the conditions under which diamonds naturally develop. Lab created diamonds display the same physical, chemical, and optical characteristics as natural diamonds, and exhibit the same fire, scintillation, and sparkle. Lab created diamonds offer excellent value and provide a mining-free alternative to naturally sourced

Recycled Diamonds

Recycled diamonds are a responsible choice. These diamonds have been mined, cut, and polished, were previously purchased, and are now being made available again. Because they are repurposed after a prior purchase, these diamonds require no new mining. This reduces the demand for new diamond mining and avoids perpetuating ongoing abuses. Our recycled diamonds have been graded by an independent gemological lab, so can be compared to newly mined diamonds for their quality characteristics.

Accent Daimond

Diamond accents are challenging to track and segregate by origin due to their small size. Our diamond accents are Kimberley Process certified, but, unless otherwise specified on the product page, we do not identify an origin for our diamond accents. Where possible, our suppliers will prioritize sourcing accent diamonds that originate from Canada, Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, or Lesotho. Where available, we also match the type of accent diamonds with the type of selected center diamond. If a lab created center diamond is selected, then the accent diamonds may be lab created, as indicated in the product details.

Our Vision for the Future: Fair Trade Diamonds

Despite abundant natural resources, many artisanal miners live in abject poverty and endure terrible working conditions every day. The fair trade diamond model is an innovative approach to transforming the artisanal diamond mining sector and improving the livelihoods of miners.

As part of our commitment to ethically sourced jewelry, Engagement Rings’s goal is to support our non-profit partner Diamond Development Initiative’s work to bring these diamonds to market in the future. Learn more about how Engagement Rings is disrupting the diamond industry.
