We believe it is our duty not to use conflict diamonds, and we are strongly committed to that goal. We operate in compliance with resolutions set forth by the United Nations as well as the Kimberley Process certification scheme. We believe this is the most effective way of keeping conflict diamonds out of legitimate channels of commerce.To the best of our knowledge, the diamonds used in our jewelry are conflict-free; we use only reputable suppliers when purchasing and processing diamonds. All diamonds that pass through our hands are accompanied by invoices stamped with the affirmative statement of a System of Warranties. We keep these records for a minimum of 5 years, and have an internal audit system in check.For more information on conflict diamonds, please visit the United Nations and World Diamond Council Web sites at www.un.org and www.worlddiamondcouncil.com.
