Why MADE Diamonds?
Natural Diamond HarmDiamond mining destroys the habitats of desperately endangered species and is responsible for an untold number of human rights abuses both past and present. Believing in the mystique and allure of natural diamonds is an outdated and harmful mindset. There really is nothing more harmful in the name of romance than a natural diamond engagement ring.
|
Ethical Engagement RingsAn engagement ring that is ethically responsible, sustainable, eco-friendly and cruelty-free is a more compassionate way to symbolise your love. Opting for a lab created stone in line with your partner's values is a far more loving gesture. Our UK made vegan-friendly engagement rings signify integrity and morality rather than the death and destruction of mined diamonds.
|
The Smarter AlternativeMADE Diamonds are hand-cut stones made up of real man made diamond built onto a purpose built core which allows the quality of each stone to be highly regulated in order to consistently create high quality gemstones at a price point that represents real value. The result is a stone visually indistinguishable from a quality natural diamond at a fraction of the cost.
|
Technology can provide better solutions to replace products that do harm to people, animals and our planet. We believe it is every company’s responsibility to make it easier for people to shop ethically by creating better solutions that offer real value.
Buying a Natural Diamond Supports Child Labour
|
Child labour and slavery within the diamond mining industry is still rife. People generally seem to assume that forced labour and child labour are a thing of the past but the practices are alive and well within the natural diamond industry. Children suffer unbelievably hazardous conditions, gruelling long hours and often receive no pay.
Companies within the natural diamond industry have blood on their hands and continue to engage in horrendous practices such as the forced relocation of indigenous people. The longer people continue to support these companies by purchasing their products, the longer these atrocities will continue.

About UsOur experience in the fine jewellery industry spans over 30 years and our workshop in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter is steeped in history. As our values evolved over the years we decided to combine the best elements of what we knew in traditional fine jewellery production with emerging technologies that can have a positive impact on the world.
We decided from day one to do just one thing really well. We make engagement rings. Rather than spreading our focus thinly across every different kind of jewellery as almost all other companies do, we specialise in fine engagement rings only. It’s what allows us to create exquisite rings time and time again. Our mission is to create remarkable and beautiful engagement rings that align with our values and those of a new generation of demanding, morally conscious, principled individuals. We are proud to be preserving the honourable traditions of fine craftsmanship whilst embracing progressive technologies that do away with harmful, outdated conventions. |
MADE Diamonds is owned and operated by a vegan family. We are proud to be able to incorporate our values into our business. Our engagement rings are vegan-friendly and we are proud to be a Viva Vegan Approved Retailer.
