AnaKatarina Eco Gioielli brings ethically mined Canada Goose Diamonds to Boston area

Sept. 21, 2011 - PRLog -- Boston, Mass.- Ana-Katarina Vinkler-Petrovic, the designer behind the eco-friendly fine jewelry brand AnaKatarina Eco Gioielli, has partnered with Canada Goose Diamonds to bring ethically mined diamonds to consumers in the Boston area.

AnaKatarina Eco Gioielli has long used socially responsible materials in its high-end limited edition fine jewelry collections and custom designs. The brand’s founder and designer, Ana-Katarina Vinkler-Petrovic, works exclusively with recycled gold, fair-trade gemstones and nonconflict diamonds. Canada Goose, meanwhile, provides socially conscious diamonds from its mines in Canada’s Northwest Territories. Established in 1998, the company prides itself on responsible mining practices that adhere to Canada’s strict environmental laws. These ethically mined diamonds are a natural extension of the AnaKatarina Eco Gioielli brand.

“Today’s discerning luxury, fashion, and bridal clients understand their social responsibility when purchasing high-end jewelry, so I’m thrilled to partner with Canada Goose Diamonds to be able to offer these ethically mined gems to clients in the Boston and Cambridge area,” says designer Ana-Katarina Vinkler-Petrovic. “There is a beautiful synergy between AnaKatarina Eco Gioielli and Canada Goose Diamonds. Like my fine jewelry brand, Canada Goose Diamonds is dedicated to providing only sustainable and fair-practice goods, and I’m proud to join them in this united front for the promotion of ethically produced fine jewelry.”

Social responsibility is increasingly important for those shopping for diamond jewelry and engagement rings. According to AdWeek, about 75 percent of consumers believe social responsibility is important. The World Jewellery Confederation, meanwhile, reports that luxury consumers want to see corporate and social responsibility embedded in luxury brands with innovative design that carries supply chain information, and a celebration of craftsmanship that also respects local communities. Corporate responsibility is no longer “nice to have” but it is essential to long-term business success.

To celebrate the new partnership between AnaKatarina Eco Gioielli and Canada Goose Diamond, they are giving away a $2,500 diamond pendant on Facebook http://anakatarina-eco-gioielli.promoboxx.com/

Canada Goose diamonds are available from AnaKatarina Eco Gioielli at Boston Platinum, 333 Washington St., Suite 344, Boston, Mass. Contact katarina@anakatarina.com for an appointment.

About Canada Goose Diamonds
Canada Goose Diamond was founded in 1998, when the first Canadian diamond mine opened for production. Unlike diamonds mined in Africa, Russia or South America, Canada Goose Diamond guarantees and documents socially responsibility to their consumers. Before mines are built, a careful assessment of the environment is conducted, and diamonds can not be mined without demonstrating sustainability regarding the vegetation, air and water quality and wildlife populations. Every Canada Goose diamond comes with a unique serial number and logo engraved on the girdle, along with a Certificate of Authenticity to provide consumers with the peace of mind that their diamond meets the strictest social and environmental standards. http://www.canadagoosediamond.com/
