No Blood On My Beautiful Diamond!!

As many of you know, I've been concerned about the conflict diamond trade for many years. Here is part of the statement from the jewelry store where my diamond was purchased:

"Our Source of Diamonds
We comply with the Kimberley Process and require all our trade suppliers of diamonds and diamond jewelry to provide us with a warranty that they do not supply us with conflict diamonds.
The warranty is as follows:"For any product fabricated from rough diamonds mined from January 1, 2003 onward, the seller warrants that the diamonds have been purchased from legitimate sources not involved in funding conflict and are in compliance with United Nations Resolutions. The seller hereby guarantees that the diamonds are conflict free, based on personal knowledge and/or written guarantees provided by the supplier of these diamonds."

Yippie! Blood diamonds are no good, friends!!
