"After searching for many months for the perfect diamond for my engagement ring I found Diamond Imports online. Diamond Imports not only had a wonderful website, it was extremely informative. All the diamonds were in stock and not overseas. I was able to view them in person at my appointment with my fiance. This made it easier for us to select and choose a beautiful diamond."
A diamond that has been graded and independently certfied by DCLA is guaranteed to be:
1. Accurately graded in accordance with the International Diamond Council and CIBJO standards for grading polished diamonds.
Incorrectly graded diamonds can represent a substantial loss to the consumer. The DCLA grades to the internationally accepted standards set by CIBJO and the IDC using accurate reference materials and procedures as set out by those bodies.
2. A natural mined diamond free of all known treatments.*
Synthetic diamonds and treated diamonds are of significantly lower value than their natural counterparts. The DCLA do not issue certificates for synthetic diamonds nor diamonds treated to enhance colour or purity.*
3. Conflict free and from legitimate sources not involved in funding conflict.
Conflict diamonds, although negligible in numbers, represent a significant threat to consumer confidence and the appeal and status of diamonds as the symbol of love. The industry, together with governments and NGOs, developed the Kimberley Process and put in place a System of Warranties. DCLA subscribes to the System of Warranties.
