The International Life Diamond Association is an independent, non-profit organization dedicated to establishing transparency standards, certifying traceability, and protecting consumer interests in the life diamond industry.
Independent, transparent, and rigorous — the three pillars of ILDA's commitment to the life diamond industry.
As a non-profit association with no commercial stake in diamond sales, ILDA provides truly independent third-party verification of traceability claims.
We establish and publish clear industry standards for traceability documentation, laboratory audit protocols, and consumer disclosure requirements.
Every certified diamond receives a unique traceability certificate. Anyone can verify its authenticity through our public online portal at any time.
