A BEAUTIFUL BEGINNING

The conflict free choice for a brilliant future.

Our Legacy

A lot of lab-grown diamond jewelry companies are tech or ecomm companies -- not jewelers. Our co-founder Alexander Weindling is a third-generation diamond jeweler. Our leadership of industry experts -- with over 200 years of combined experience -- has come together to create a new kind of jeweler who is caring, clean, and at the forefront of impactful innovation.

As a member of a prominent family in the diamond business, Weindling found himself questioning many aspects of his profession: “The history of environmental destruction, the crimes to humanity and the funding of vicious warlords and tyrants that can be endemic to the industry,” he says. Looking towards the future, he felt a responsibility to make a difference. “As I prepared to pass on a wounded and pillaged planet to my children, I knew things needed to stop. Now.”

“We no longer need to dig pits into the earth so large that some can be seen from space nor suck the seabed floor with giant vacuums to obtain diamonds,” Weindling has said. There’s a saying, “Be the change you want to see in the world.”

Those words helped drive Weindling to leave his family’s industry after nearly a century. They also inspired him to take the wisdom he’d gained to find a way to build a more environmentally conscious and ethical diamond jewelry industry. “As soon as I saw a better way, I decided to lead the charge,” he says. “This is my chance to close out my career on the right side of history.”

When launching Clean Origin in 2017, Weindling and co-founder Ryan Bonifacino vowed not to touch any mined diamonds or gemstones. Instead, the company is guided by environmental principles, using techniques such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and high pressure high temperature (HPHT) in producing lab-grown diamonds, as well as using recycled metals whenever possible.

Our Mission

For years, the dark truths of traditional diamond mining have been kept secret, hidden behind the sparkle and radiance of these precious gemstones. At Clean Origin, we’re making a new legacy – one of transparency, ethics, and environmental responsibility. Our designs exclusively use ethically created and conflict free lab grown diamonds, reducing our water and energy use, land and mineral disturbance, and carbon emissions along the way. It’s our mission to be on the right side of diamond history.

Our Story

Founded in 2017 by a team of industry veterans with over 100 years of combined experience, Clean Origin is on a mission to lead the jewelry industry towards a brighter future. With ethical innovations, the highest standards of quality, and unmatched expertise, we’re designing fine jewelry that never compromises our values.



Our Lab Grown Diamonds

Lab grown diamonds are identical to traditionally mined diamonds – from their physical properties to chemical composition. Just like mined diamonds, our lab grown diamonds are graded by gemological labs specializing in grading based on the 4 Cs (cut, clarity, color, and carat).

There are clear reasons why this astonishing innovation is paving the path towards a more ethical industry: Using lab grown diamonds exclusively, we reduce the land and mineral disturbance traditionally caused by mining, as well as eliminate the harmful labor practices associated with mining. We can also mitigate our carbon emissions, as well as energy and water use – all while ensuring that each diamond is as radiant, brilliant, and unique as ever.

Expertise you can trust

Our team of diamond experts handpicks the selection of diamonds available on our site. At any time, you are only looking at stones that meet our minimum standards of quality in terms of the 4 Cs.
