CITES – Washington Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (WA)

Besides the loss of habitat, overexploitation and international trade represent the greatest threat to the survival of wild fauna and flora. To counter uncontrolled international trade, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) was negotiated in Washington in 1973. The Convention is also known as the Washington Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (WA).

 

How does CITES work?

CITES regulates international trade in wild fauna and flora species and products of these species. CITES is monitored by national enforcement and other authorities which control trade on the basis of export and import licenses. The aim is to preserve the species in the long term.

External expertise

When purchasing one of our Conch pearls, we issue our customers an illustrated certificate of authenticity with exact details and descriptions of the pearls and thus guarantee the authenticity.

On special request it is possible for us to request a report on the authenticity of a recognized laboratory, as we cooperate with various international gemological institutes.

The costs incurred in this connection (depending on the institute) will be invoiced to the interested party; we will of course take over the complete organizational handling free of charge..

Further information on the possible costs – exemplified by the German Gemstone Research Foundation (DSEF). Deutschen Stiftung Edelsteinforschung (DSEF)

For some selected pearls of our stock we already have authenticity findings.

These will then of course be handed over to you free of charge.
