From Place Vendôme to Ethereum
COURBET is the brand behind CO Genesis. Born from value-driven audacity, COURBET entered the luxury jewelry arena in 2018, with its bold mission to turn sustainability into an obvious aspect of luxury. The key was diamonds grown with renewable energy and traceable recycled gold from e-waste. Tech made this possible and became a crucial enabler also for the rest of COURBET’s business. Early on COURBET turned to the blockchain for its engagement ring certificates and implemented a solution to accept crypto on its website and in its showroom on 7 Place Vendôme in Paris.Entering the web3 with CO Genesis is a logic choice and is seen as the future for creating and sharing value with a closely connected community. COURBET is backed by strong investors such as one of the largest global luxury brands and two VC funds. The brand has delivered an annual 50-100% growth since its launch confirming that despite past years' challenging circumstances, the market is ready for sustainable luxury.
an ecological alternative
A laboratory-grown diamond has the same properties as a mined diamond. The only difference is how they are formed; their origin, their "alter/native". Lab-grown diamonds are grown in highly controlled laboratory environments using advanced technological processes that duplicate the conditions under which diamonds develop naturally. These diamonds consist of actual carbon atoms arranged in the characteristic diamond crystal structure and exhibit the same optical and chemical properties.
