The perfect cut is the cut that enables the diamond to completely reflect the light. On the other hand, an imperfect cut prevents the complete reflection of light, and the diamond loses brilliance.
The diamonds used by Mirco Visconti do not come from conflict zones or arms trafficking and do not exploit the dignity of those who extract them but, on the contrary, they provide a source of lawful and fairly paid employment. This is guaranteed by exclusively purchasing from suppliers adhering to the Kymberly Process Certification Schemes (KPCS). It is an international agreement between the UN and governments of countries, the diamond industry, and non-governmental organizations.
Each lot of diamonds is accompanied by a certificate attesting that diamonds come from sites with no relation to armed conflicts. Diamonds can only be exported to a KPCS member country and whenever they change ownership, they must be accompanied by a Guarantee. Like the one that accompanies each Mirco Visconti sales document.
MIRCO VISCONTI S.P.A. all our diamonds are purchased from suppliers who apply the World Diamond Council System of Warranties based on the Kimberley Process in order to ensure they have been purchased from legitimate sources not involved in funding conflict and in compliance with the United Nations resolution.
Each Mirco Visconti jewel is accompanied by an identification tag with serial number that allows tracing each stage of the production chain: from the first processes to the quality checks carried out on each stone and on the finished jewel. As a further guarantee, each piece is laser engraved with all the information that define its value and origin.
Each Mirco Visconti jewel is covered by an international replacement warranty, valid for one year from the date of purchase. The coverage applies in the event of theft, mugging, robbery or fire. To guarantee its validity, it is sufficient to fill out the International Replacement Certificate and activate the warranty online.
Creating beauty requires commitment and dedication. Behind each Mirco Visconti jewel there is a passionate team that seeks perfection in every gesture. A tight-knit group, directly trained within the company, which creates a value chain at every stage of the manufacturing process, from production to administration.
