Introducing Shop Natural Day: A New Movement Celebrating Natural Diamonds
Sponsored by De Beers Group

Shop Natural Day responds to a growing shift in consumer awareness. In 2025, buyers are asking more nuanced questions, not just about what they’re purchasing, but how it’s made and where it comes from. This initiative offers a moment to reflect on those values, explore what sets natural diamonds apart in today’s marketplace and allow qualified fine jewelry retailers to let their customers know they are “go to” experts on diamond jewelry.
Natural diamonds offer:
- Authenticity – Formed deep within the Earth over billions of years, each stone is a product of geological history.
- Individuality – No two are alike. Each diamond carries a distinct set of characteristics shaped by nature.
- Enduring value – With cultural and emotional significance, natural diamonds hold long-term appeal.
To support participation, A Diamond Is Forever has made a range of complimentary promotional materials available on Promoboxx. These include adaptable messaging, visual assets, and tools for both in-store and digital engagement. Retailers can use these resources to tailor their approach based on their audience and brand voice.
Shop Natural Day is not just a date on the calendar; it’s the beginning of a broader conversation. Whether through a display, a dialogue, or a social media post, it’s an opportunity to share the story of natural diamonds in a way that resonates with today’s values.
