Diamonds are meant to be a gift of love, and we at Mondera abhor the way in which some gems have been used to fund conflict.
To stop this practice, governments, our industry, and human rights groups created the Kimberley Process in 2002, which today ensures that over 99% of all rough diamonds come from sources free from conflict.
We require all our suppliers to provide an official written warranty that their diamonds come from Kimberley-certified sources and thus are not involved in funding conflict. The Warranty Statement reads:
The diamonds herein invoiced have been purchased from legitimate sources not involved in funding conflict and in compliance with United Nations Resolutions. The seller hereby guarantees that these diamonds are conflict free, based on personal knowledge and/or written guarantees provided by the supplier of these diamonds.
For more information on conflict diamonds and the steps that the industry has taken to prevent them, we suggest that you review the facts at
