One unpleasant and often unseen side of the diamond industry is the diamonds created in a war zone. Diamonds in war-torn countries such as Angola, Ivory Coast, and Sierra Leone, are mined and sold to finance insurgencies, an invading army’s conquest, or to perpetuate a warlord’s rule. To stop these so-called “blood diamonds” from entering the mainstream rough diamond market, the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme was established. The scheme has been very successful and continues to improve. Yearly meetings between the members are helpful in bringing the market together and closer to eliminating blood diamonds in the world trade.
Customers of Shane Co. are assured that the jeweler’s suppliers and vendors are compliant with the Kimberly Process, the Voluntary System of Warranties, and United Nations resolutions relating to blood diamonds. Each and every piece comes with a promise of utmost care and integrity, and gemstones are sourced directly from carefully selected partners, striking a perfect balance between quality and affordability.
Shane Co’s Pave-Set Round Diamond Wedding Band is a perfect example of this offering. This 14-carat, white gold band is pavé-set with 165 round diamonds, amounting to around 2.25-carat total weight. Each diamond is hand-matched, ensuring that fire, brilliance, and color are consistent all throughout the band. Ethically sourced directly, middlemen and markups are virtually eliminated. It is detailed with milgrain at the top and on the sides, giving off a sense of splendor without overdoing it.
As with all Shane Co’s major offerings, this stackable and engravable 6.3 mm white gold band comes with a lifetime warranty, with free cleaning, maintenance, and repair. This jewelry also comes with an elegant gift-box, with an impeccable hand-tied ribbon, making it a perfect gift for your bride-to-be.
