What are conflict-free diamonds?
Conflict-free diamonds are earth mined diamonds that are sourced through the Kimberly Process. These diamonds are certified to ensure they have not been used to finance armed conflict in foreign countries.
Does True Ideals offer conflict-free diamonds?
Yes. Every diamond we offer is responsibly sourced and guaranteed to be conflict-free.
What is the difference between a mined diamond and a lab-grown diamond?
A mined diamond is formed naturally, deep in the earth over many years. A lab-grown diamond is produced using high pressure and heat that simulates the natural conditions of the earth but eliminates the ecological impact of mining. Both types of diamonds are composed of the same material – pure crystallized carbon – and share identical chemical and physical properties.
