Diamond journey

It is typical to know whether a bottle of wine is from France, Italy, or some other place. Whether that wild salmon in your supermarket came from the Atlantic or the Pacific. Whether this grapefruit came from Turkey or Latin America. But can diamonds be traced to a country or a mine as well?
The answer is yes. One of the hottest trends in the diamond industry today is diamond traceability and provenance. Consumers are demanding to know for certain where their diamonds come from, they want assurance that the diamonds were mined ethically, that their natural diamond is indeed natural and not lab grown. The new style of diamond report presents the entire ‘journey’ the diamond has taken from rough, mined stone to polished diamond in the jewelry store.
In order to provide this information, and to be able to verify it, diamond manufacturers must have access to the diamond’s true history, with reliable tracing along the entire way. This is extremely difficult information to access reliably. It requires constant contact with the diamond throughout the entire planning and polishing process, with the diamond ID verified at each stage.
At Reger Diamond, we encourage such scrupulous treatment of jewellery products and usually provide origin information for our diamonds, helping to establish the norm that consumers should know where their gems come from. To find out more about our diamonds, go to www.regerdiamond.com
