How
do you know if Brinkhaus Diamonds are conflict-free?
Brinkhaus only purchases diamonds from the most reputable purveyors
or cutters who declare on their invoices that the diamonds sold
have been obtained in compliance with the Kimberley process.
Whenever possible, Brinkhaus favours the use of Canadian
diamonds in the creation of its bridal jewellery and solitary
diamond jewellery as they are guaranteed to have been extracted
under strict supervision, compliant with the laws that have
been developed to protect the diamond workforce, the mining
area’s native people and environment. |

Are
Canadian diamonds conflict-free?
Diamonds mined in Canada are conflict-free. Canada, as a KPCS
participant, passed legislation in 2002 making it illegal to
import or export diamonds from non-compliant KPCS sources. |
 |
Are
the United States a member of the KPCS?
In April 25, 2003, the US passed the Clean Diamond Trade Act
that was signed into a law that would insure their participation
in the KPCS.
