The value of a jewel lies not only in its weight but in its story. At Lalezar we make it a rule to keep our supply chain documented.
Diamonds
We buy our stones from sources documented under the Kimberley Process. Every diamond of 0.20 ct and above has an independent laboratory report with colour, clarity, cut and carat details; the serial number laser-inscribed on the girdle is matched to the report.
Gold and platinum
Our raw material comes from bullion and recycled gold. When old jewellery from customers is melted and reused, no new mining is needed in the supply chain.
Coloured stones
For sapphires, emeralds and rubies the origin (for example Colombia, Ceylon, Mozambique), heat treatment and filling status are written on the report. You can inspect the stone under a loupe in the boutique before buying.
Atelier staff
All employees in our atelier are insured and trained in occupational safety; each year we offer internships to students of vocational jewellery schools.
