MiaDonna is your source for the world's most ethical and affordable engagement rings. They’re putting a modern twist on a ridiculously outdated industry. They’re not your typical jeweler. They believe in creating traditions, not following them. MiaDonna advocates for diamond mining communities, the environment and you. Founded by a mother passionate to create change in the world, MiaDonna was established with a single objective: to offer consumers beautiful, ethical and affordable fine lab-grown diamond jewelry that would help free innocent children oppressed by the active conflict diamond mining industry. Created in a modern-day lab environment, their exquisite selection of grown diamonds and gemstones are more stunning than anything ever mined from the earth and come free from any negative environmental or social impacts. They take pride in leading a new ear in the diamond industry. From your purchase, 10% of the net profits are used to fund educational, mentorship, agricultural, and urgent relief programs in diamond mining communities through their foundation, The Greener Diamond. They also plant a tree with every order through One Tree Planted to offset the carbon emissions created through shipping.
