We receive many inquiries from customers who have heard about “Conflict Diamonds” and who are legitimately concerned about any possible ethical ramifications about purchasing diamonds. In 2003 the “Clean Diamond Trade Act” was signed into law, which works to exclude rough “Conflict Diamonds” from international trade while promoting legitimate trade.

As Kansas City’s oldest fine jewelry store, we work solely with suppliers and diamond producers that adhere to the Kimberley Process. There are 43 participant countries, including the U.S. and the European Community. Under this process, diamond producing countries certify that diamonds have been mined and sold through legitimate channels. This program is designed to prevent conflict and elicit diamonds from entering the international diamond trade. We greatly appreciate our customer’s desire to shop “conflict free” and will never stray from this practice.

It is our mission to ensure every customer finds Ruback to be as comfortable a jewelry buying experience as possible. We not only want you to love your purchase, we want you to feel confident in the quality of our jewelry, the value you receive, and our integrity.
