Birks and Mayors to Distribute Botswana Diamonds
According to a recent press release Birks and Mayors Inc. has entered into an agreement to market and sell Botswana Diamonds in North America. We feel this is the beginning of a paradigm shift of how diamonds will be sourced in the future. The more the buying public becomes aware of the the good that diamonds from Botswana and Namibia can do for the local communities in Africa, the better they will feel about their diamond purchases. There is a fantastic video on this very subject at the Diamonds from Botswana blog. This is going to do great things for the diamond industry and local communities in Africa as well. Let’s hope more jewelers embrace this concept of positive change!
