Brilliant Earth’s Post

Our jewelry choices are important. A decade ago we asked the origin of our diamonds and we improved the world and the diamond industry by only purchasing conflict free diamonds. It’s now time to ask the origin of our gold. Mercury emissions from small scale gold mining are a major threat to us and to our planet. As a global partner with the United Nations, it is my mission together to eliminate them. Mercury free mined gold is the next important standard our jewelry choices can establish. While words such as “sustainable”, “ethical”, and “eco-friendly” are familiar to all of us as brands try to do their part, eliminating mercury emissions is the goal. FUTURA Jewelry only uses mercury-free certified Fairmined Ecological gold.

The high-end diamond industry involves a complex process that requires expertise, trust, and discretion. From sourcing to marketing, every step is critical to ensure the quality and value of the diamonds. Diamond brokers source diamonds from various suppliers, evaluate them for quality, negotiate with sellers, and ensure the transaction and transportation are secure. The diamonds are often accompanied by certificates from reputable gemological laboratories, which provide detailed information about their characteristics. Buyers may conduct further verification to ensure the diamonds match the agreed-upon specifications and are in the promised condition. In some cases, high-end diamonds are purchased for investment purposes or for resale, and brokers engage in marketing efforts to maximize their value. #diamondindustry #highenddiamonds #gemology #investment

The Vikingtidsmuseet listed these artefacts (clockwise from top left) from Heimdalsjordet as: 'Pendant, possibly for a necklace Flat hammered ingot Production waste Flat hammered gold ring'
