Dominion Diamond and R2Net, owner of JamesAllen.com, have signed an agreement to bring CanadaMark certified diamonds directly to online consumers.
According to Rough & Polished, “JamesAllen.com will be the exclusive online retailer of CanadaMark certified diamonds, and each of the Dominion’s stones listed on its website will bear unique serial number, and will have an official certificate of origin from either Ekati or Diavik diamond mines”.
In April, it was reported that R2Net received a $140 million from equity firm Francisco Partners. According to news reports, this gives Francisco Partners a near 50% stake in the company, valuing R2Net at approximately $300 million.
