Vantyghem Diamonds and Burgundy Diamond Mines: A Journey of Ethical Brilliance

From the pristine wilderness of Canada’s Northwest Territories to the meticulous craftsmanship of skilled artisans, Ekati diamonds embody a legacy of ethical sourcing, traceability, and exceptional quality. Sourced from Burgundy Diamond Mines’ Ekati mine, these rare gems are a testament to both Canadian heritage and the highest standards of transparency in the diamond industry.

Vantyghem Diamonds, a trusted leader with a longstanding reputation for excellence, proudly partners with Burgundy to offer clients diamonds that not only sparkle with unparalleled beauty but are also ethically sourced and fully traceable. With this commitment to quality and integrity, Vantyghem ensures that each diamond represents a true investment in both luxury and responsible sourcing.

“Working with Burgundy and sourcing diamonds directly from Ekati mine, means that we can trust the stones are ethically produced and conflict-free,” says Kevin Vantyghem, CEO of Vantyghem Diamonds. “The Canadian origin, rigorous environmental standards, and community investment in these remote areas make Ekati diamonds truly stand apart.”

Ekati mine is world-renowned for producing sustainable gem-quality diamonds. To maximize their brilliance, each diamond undergoes a meticulous transformation process, carefully handled by expert cutters and experienced polishers. Every rough stone is tracked within Vantyghem’s Authentication Plate System, what Kevin refers to as the “Canadian passport” for diamonds – ensuring the integrity of the stone’s origin is preserved throughout the process. This system allows retailers to confidently share the full story of the diamond’s journey, from mine to market, giving clients a complete and transparent picture of the stone’s provenance.

For Vantyghem’s clients, particularly those in Europe, Canada, U.S., Japan and Australia, the Canadian origin of Ekati diamonds adds significant value and appeal. “When customers hear it’s a Canadian diamond, that stands for quality, ethics and sustainable community investment” says Kevin.

Burgundy’s commitment to sustainable mining practices and strong community partnerships resonates deeply with clients seeking assurance that their purchase supports ethical sourcing and environmental responsibility.

“Ekati diamonds reinforce our position as a trusted, ethical brand,” explains Kevin. “Vantyghem Diamonds’ Authentication Plate System is built around four core pillars: Responsibly Mined, Ethically Sourced, Individually Verified, and Professionally Graded. With over 50 years of experience, we continue to uphold our reputation as a leading source for Canadian diamonds, meeting the needs of independent retail jewelers worldwide.”

Canada, the world’s third-largest diamond producer, is a global leader in responsible mining, with strict regulatory laws and processes that prioritize environmental protection and wildlife conservation. Therefore, Burgundy diamonds are more than just a product – they embody the harmonious coexistence of luxury and sustainability. For Vantyghem Diamonds and its clients, an Ekati diamond symbolizes a deep connection not only to nature but to the communities that benefit and thrive thanks to responsible mining practices.

By sourcing Ekati diamonds, Vantyghem Diamonds helps preserve Canadian heritage and supports remote communities, demonstrating that luxury and responsibility can truly go hand in hand.
