With the launch of its Certified Sustainability Rated rêve line of lab-grown diamonds, Helzberg Diamonds is setting itself apart as the first national jewelry retail chain accredited under the SCS-007 Jewelry Sustainability Standard. This line inspired by the French term meaning "to dream" shares a forward-thinking new vision for the future of fine jewelry.
As consumers become more informed about the negative environmental and ethical impacts associated with traditional diamond mining, they are searching for alternatives that support sustainable and ethical practices in the jewelry industry. Lab-controlled diamonds, which are made in a controlled environment without the need for mining, speak to consumers who want products that not only align with their values but are also more cost-friendly than their traditionally produced counterparts.
