What is diamond provenance?

Provenance is a term used to describe the region or country where a diamond originated. Many Tiffany diamonds begin their journey as rough stones, mined in countries such as Australia, Botswana, Canada, Namibia, Russia and South Africa. All Tiffany rough diamonds are sourced either directly from a known mine or from a supplier with a limited number of known mines. We encourage high standards in the mining industry to protect human rights and ecologically sensitive lands.
