Conflict-Free

“Conflict-free” jewellery denotes pieces crafted from diamonds, gold, gemstones, and materials sourced under stringent ethical standards to ensure no proceeds fund armed conflict or support exploitative practices. This designation resonates strongly with today’s consumers and trade buyers, reflecting both regulatory compliance—such as OECD guidelines and the UK’s Due Diligence Scheme—and corporate responsibility goals. Jewellery Focus delivers authoritative coverage of conflict-free sourcing, including updates on ethical certification standards, best-practice supply-chain auditing, traceability technologies, brand commitments, and consumer expectations within the UK market. Our reporting equips retailers, designers, manufacturers, and suppliers with actionable insights to manage compliance, bolster brand trust, meet demand for transparency, and navigate evolving regulations in this critical area of responsible jewellery commerce.
