Interesting thing about manufactured diamonds: They’re chemically diamonds; what really differentiates them from the mined kind is that they’re more flawless. Yet they generally cost less.

No, the Canadian Arctic diamonds are actually diamonds; just like African diamonds. Only with less baggage…

Are Canadian Arctics the same as Moissanite (a.k.a. silicon carbide)?

After my husband saw Blood Diamond he wanted me to throw away my ring, but I told him it was probably fine since we bought it in Canada- it probably isn’t a canadian artic diamond, but its a nice thought. btw it was my second engagement ring, don’t know what happened to #1, hopefully someone bought it.

Johnna, in all likelyhood if it is a diamond ring, then they already paid DeBeers once.

The demand for diamond engagement rings worldwide has done a lot of harm in Africa. I think De Beers counts as a secret combination.

It’s good when people sell engagement rings in the classified. At least they’re bypassing the system DeBeers has set up.
