Diamond Traceability
& Ethical Sourcing

Our Commitment

Transparency is
Not Optional.

The diamond trade has historically struggled with opacity. We've spent over three decades building the opposite — a supply chain where every parcel, every stone, and every certificate can be verified at every step.

Our buyers — from Antwerp to Tokyo — trust us because they can always ask "where did this diamond come from?" and receive a complete, documented answer.

The Journey

Five Steps from Earth
to Your Setting.

01

Conflict-Free Mine

Rough diamonds sourced exclusively from KP-certified mines in Botswana, Namibia, Canada, and Russia. Every parcel arrives with KPCS documentation verifying origin.

Kimberley Process Certified
02

Rough Grading & Planning

Senior gemologists assess each stone for inclusions, colour, and yield. 3D laser scanning (Sarin / OGI) generates the exact cutting plan for maximum brilliance.

Internal Grade Record

Master Cut & Polish

Surat artisans averaging 15+ years execute the cut to exact proportions. Each stone is polished to GIA table and depth tolerances with inter-stage quality checks.

Common Questions

Traceability FAQ.

Is Anand Exports Kimberley Process compliant?

Yes. We have been fully Kimberley Process compliant since 1989. Every parcel of rough diamonds we import and export is accompanied by a valid KPCS certificate. Copies are available on request for any transaction.

Which labs do you use for certification?

We primarily use GIA, IGI, and HRD Antwerp. The choice of lab is guided by the buyer's market — GIA for North American and international buyers, IGI for Asian markets, HRD for European buyers.

Can I request a certificate for a stone in your inventory?

Yes. All stones above 0.30ct ship with their original grading report. The report number is laser-inscribed on the diamond's girdle and can be verified directly on the lab's website. Contact us via the inquiry form or WhatsApp for certification details on any specific stone.

Do you supply uncertified diamonds?

For calibrated melee parcels below 0.18ct we supply by parcel specification rather than individual certification, as is standard wholesale practice. All such parcels carry our own quality declaration. Individual certification for melee is available on special request.

How do I verify a certificate?

GIA: gia.edu/report-check · IGI: igi.org · HRD: hrdantwerp.com. The report number is always laser-inscribed on the stone's girdle, allowing physical verification under 10× magnification.
