What is an old mine cut diamond?
Similar in shape to modern cushion cut diamonds, old mine cuts were hand cut and polished in the 18th or 19th century. They have 58 larger facets, which were specifically cut to sparkle in candlelight. Because it is their history that defines old miners (as they’re also referred to) they are more rare and unique than modern cuts.

What is Fairmined Certified Gold?
Fairmined gold comes from artisanal and small-scale mining organizations certified against the Fairmined standard. This certification guarantees that the gold has been extracted in harmony with nature, human dignity, and sustainable development, contributing to the transformation of lives in these mining communities.
Mines must comply with technical, legal, and environmental requirements to obtain the Fairmined certification, which is renewed and audited every year.
Fairmined precious metals are for everyone who wants responsibly sourced gold and seeks to make a positive economic, social, and environmental impact in mining communities.
The Fairmined standard and seal were created by the Alliance for Responsible Mining, an international non-profit organization that has been working since 2004 for the development of artisanal and small-scale mining communities worldwide. To learn more, visit fairmined.org
