004: Diamond Mythbusting with Sam Lloyd – The Truth About Rarity, Romance, and Responsibility

In this episode, Candice teams up with gemmology expert and educator Sam Lloyd FGA DGA EG, to tackle four popular myths about diamonds. Together, they explore whether diamonds are truly as rare as we’re led to believe, uncover the real impact of De Beers’ famous "A Diamond is Forever" campaign on the engagement ring tradition, and examine if natural diamonds should all be considered conflict diamonds. They also dive into the rising trend of lab-grown diamonds, questioning if these alternatives are genuinely more sustainable. 

Join Candice and Sam for a myth-busting journey that sheds light on the fascinating world of diamonds and offers insights for informed and ethical choices in the diamond industry.
