Synthetic Diamonds
C&C Jewelry Mfg. Inc. is committed to fighting against undisclosed synthetic diamonds. The following methodology has been adopted to prevent usage of undisclosed synthetic diamonds:
-
Maintaining access to effective detection systems.
-
Buying from trusted suppliers.
-
Reporting of undisclosed synthetics to suppliers and interested parties whenever detected.
-
Recording reported incidents of contamination and implementing suitable corrective and preventive measures for effective controls.
-
Classifying contamination of points into different categories (High, Medium & Low).
-
Identifying the policy, procedure and mechanisms to implement necessary testing within the organization.
The necessary declaration of compliance is obtained from the supply chain, and assurance is passed on to the customers with the printing of synthetic declarations on all of our invoices.
The current SRSP or DRSP invoice warranty statement will continue to suffice as certification that C&C Jewelry Mfg., Inc. is complying with all applicable policies in regards to Russia, because the SRSP is an evergreen protocol. The SRSP was designed to take into account changes in sourcing as they evolve over the years; this applies to current events. C&C Jewelry follows our existing practices and continues to comply with those of the SRSP, which now includes their new guidance.
By including the current SRSP or DRSP warranty statement, C&C Jewelry is certifying that no diamonds or precious metals of Russian origin purchased after February 24, 2022 are present in any Signet products.
