Buying diamonds can be confusing, and so customers often seek documentation, traceability or provenance when purchasing. At Misfit Diamonds, we ensure that all our diamonds are compliant with standards in place to ensure we are providing fair and traceable diamonds. Despite the fact that all our diamonds are KPC-compliant, they don't always come with complete paperwork. We've broken these varying degrees of provenance and documentation into Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3 to allow you to chose the diamonds that are best for your customers. Read more about our chain of provenance here.

From Mine to Polished
Misfit Diamonds works with its vendors to secure parcels of Mine-to-Market diamonds from Gahcho Kué and Ekati mines, ensuring that the entire process is documented to establish a transparent, verifiable chain of custody for each stone from its rough state to its final polished form. The rough diamonds are purchased in closed lots, with weights and stone counts documented in invoices, and backed up with matching KPC documentation and original invoices from site holders all the way to Misfit Diamonds. Each diamond's individual rough weight is logged alongside images and videos of every diamond in its raw state through to the final polished forms. The goal is to use this process as the blueprint for what Misfit's sourcing practices are for all diamonds in our inventory.
