There’s something magical about the VicenzaOro Fair. For decades, it has been a stage for the jewelry world to shine its brightest, bringing together timeless tradition and boundary- pushing innovation. Walking through its halls, you can’t help but feel the heartbeat of the industry - alive with creativity, expertise, and passion.
Last Saturday, as I strolled through the halls, something caught my attention: a panel titled The Technology of Traceability. You all know how important Traceability is to me, so naturally, I stopped to listen. Among the many brilliant speakers was Wesley Tucker, the CEO of Tracr, who spoke with such clarity and vision about the future of diamond provenance that I couldn’t help but feel inspired.
Scenes from the "The Technology of Traceability" panel.
As I continued exploring, I noticed the Tracr logo on several stands. It was clear that Tracr wasn’t just an idea - it was actively making its mark at Vicenza, championing a new way of thinking about diamonds and their stories. Although I have worked with Tracr before, seeing it's strong presence at Vicenza further sparked my curiosity. I wanted to understand more. What exactly is Tracr, and why is traceability such a game-changer for the diamond industry?
Understanding provenance has never felt more relevant. The most frequently asked question I receive is ...where does that diamond come from? In a world where we’re used to knowing the story behind so many of the things we buy - from where our coffee beans are grown to how our clothes are made - it only makes sense to ask the same of diamonds. These stones hold incredible emotional and financial value. Their journey matters, and tools like Tracr help ensure that their journey is told and cherished.
So, what is Tracr? I stopped to speak with the team to learn a bit more! Tracr is the world’s leading digital platform for tracing natural diamonds from source at scale. It provides the ability to explore the provenance, authenticity, and unique journey of a diamond along the value chain.
The Tracr process begins at the source, where rough diamonds are scanned and registered on the platform. As diamonds progress along the value chain, relevant data is uploaded. Tracr’s
rough-to-rough matching compares scans at both the producer and manufacturer levels, reducing the risk of substitution.
When you buy an unlocked diamond, you’re not just making a purchase - you’re owning a piece of history! With the Tracr diamond experience, you get to see your diamond’s journey and celebrate its unique story. How cool is that? You can even explore the positive legacy your diamond has left behind in the countries where it was discovered. Experience the
journey for yourself and explore everything the Tracr diamond experience has to offer by visiting their diamond experience here.
With Tracr diamonds are no longer just timeless treasures - they’re stories waiting to be discovered. Vicenza proved that the future of the diamond industry is already here, and it's powered by Tracr.
