Myth Buster #1
Fact or Fiction: All natural diamonds are blood diamonds
Answer: Fiction!!!
False advertising within the lab-grown diamond industry has made consumers weary of purchasing natural diamonds. Fear not, the beautiful and rare natural diamond can be ethically sourced. Here at Vardy's, we make sure our diamonds are conflict free from the point of origin to the cut of the gem and the crafting of your final piece!
How?
The Kimberley Process! The Kimberley Process (KP) unites administrations, civil societies, and industry in reducing the flow of conflict diamonds (rough diamonds used to finance wars against governments) around the world.

How else can you help the world while still purchasing natural stones?
1. Buy from a reputable jeweler who knows where each stone comes from.
2. Shop small and not large corporations! Fact of the matter is, even if lab-grown companies sell man-made diamonds, that doesn't necessarily mean the stone is conflict free from the point of origin to the making of the entire ring. Here at Vardy's we make our jewelry in house and can ensure your beautiful pieces are cared for with the proper hands.
