Conflict Free Diamonds: A Girl's Best Friend

It is a well known saying that Conflict Free Diamonds are a girl’s best friend. However, it will be difficult to enjoy this friendship knowing that the diamonds in your Ring or Earrings came from the countries devastated by war, physically and emotionally abused. These diamonds are often called Conflict Free Diamonds, but regardless of the name, they have a trail of tears, pain, injustices, and loss of basic human rights. It is a known fact that such diamonds help finance wars and conflicts throughout Africa. The sparkle and glamour fade away very quickly.

The Conflict Free Diamonds Council’s mission is to create the demand of certified conflict-free diamonds and we can help them when we choose to purchase diamond jewelry from a retailer such as Greenoro, which “believes that luxury goods need not come at great human or environmental cost.”


The goal has been to offer Conflict Free Diamonds and Conflict Free Diamonds Rings, verified and certified throughout the mining and manufacturing process. Additionally, gold and platinum are from secondary sources, making Greenoro jewelry environmentally conscious as well. The company gives a portion of their profits to the communities that were devastated by the unethical diamond mining process. Greenoro is also committed to raising awareness about conflict diamonds and about socially and environmentally ethical practices in the industry.

It is apparent that Conflict Free Diamonds Rings and Conflict Free Diamonds jewelry by Greenoro is conflict free and manufactured using fair labor standards. Therefore, by making a purchase at Greenoro, you will be supporting the restoration of communities ravaged by war conflicts as well as changes in the diamond industry. These diamonds are worthy to be a girl’s best friend.
