Cremation Diamond from Your Loved Ones' Ashes or Hair

Taking some time to consider what to do with your loved one's ashes helps you gain peace after the death of someone you love. There are a wide range of options for cremated remains, including interment in a cemetery, storage in a columbarium, scattering, preservation in an urn, and even turning into cremation diamonds.

The beauty of cremation is that it allows you the freedom to memorialize your loved one in almost any way that you prefer. Through exploring what makes your loved one distinct, you can create a personal and customized memorial tribute to avoid having to say goodbye. Creating a customized memento can turn your loved one's cremated remains into a legacy.

EverDear™ can create shiny, everlasting diamonds from your loved one's remains and turn them into unique memorial jewelry. You can keep a part of the departed person always by your side and remember the joyful moments you shared with him or her in the form of a cremation diamond. Turning ashes into a memorial diamond allows the story of your loved one to live on forever and be passed down to the next generations.

Turning cremated remains into diamonds is actually using the carbon extracted from the ashes to create diamonds in a lab environment. After cremation, the body of an adult human being leaves about 1.8 to 2.7 kg of ashes (about 9.4 cups). The cremated ashes contain approximately 0.5 to 4 percent carbon.

Normally, it takes about two-thirds of a cup of ashes to make a 0.1-carat diamond. At EverDear™, to produce a 1-carat diamond, 100 grams of ashes is needed. More ashes will be needed if you want to create diamonds in larger sizes or make multiple diamonds.

Theoretically, it is possible to turn the ashes of one person into nearly 14 diamonds of 0.1-carat. Hair is a more efficient source of carbon than cremated ashes. You can increase the efficiency by preserving the hair before cremation. As a result, Everdear™ can offer you 1 diamond as large as 2.29 carats or in sets of 2 to 4 diamonds (discounted family plans).

Please note that we are using the original mass of the human body to estimate the weight of the cremated ashes. The weight of the ashes is mainly based on the weight of the bones in the body. So the height will have a larger effect on this average value than the body weight.

Cremation diamonds are lab-grown diamonds made out of carbon extracted from human cremated remains. From cremated ashes, carbon can be extracted in the form of particles. After the carbon is obtained, laboratory specialists filter, purify and then graphitize the carbon to put it under the same conditions that create a natural diamond.

In a high-temperature high-pressure environment created by special equipment, carbon extracted from human ashes experience what natural diamonds have been through over billions of years of formation. In the laboratory, this process can be condensed into a few months. Cremation diamonds grown in this way are absolutely real diamonds that share the same physical and chemical properties as natural mined diamonds. Moreover, cremation diamonds made by EverDear™ are certificated and graded by professional gemological institutions such as GIA and IGI.

The cost for turning cremated ashes or hair into memorial diamonds is less expensive than the cost of a traditional burial, along with the care of the grave. The cost to turn your loved one’s ashes into a diamond differs according to the color and cut of the diamond you want. Different carat weights also largely influence the price of a lab-grown diamond.

It is certain that the bigger the cremation diamond you want to make, the more it will cost. When the carat weight crosses a certain line, the increase in price may become significant. For example, despite the only slight increase in carat weight, a 1-carat diamond can be 10-20% more expensive than a 0.9-carat diamond.

Meanwhile, the vendor you choose to buy a diamond from is an important factor that greatly affects the price. EverDear™ provides our customers with the most affordable price in the market and charges only $695 for a 0.1-carat yellow diamond. If you order multiple diamonds at the same time, we even offer you a special discount. If you are interested in turning your loved one’s remains into diamonds but are limited by a tight budget, EverDear™, with the best price worldwide, will be your ideal choice.

Since diamonds are entirely constructed of carbon, and all living creatures contain copious amounts of carbon, it is not only possible to create diamonds from human ashes, but from animal ashes as well. All pet ashes can be turned into diamonds, whether your beloved animal is a cat, dog, horse, or even a pet parrot. EverDear™ can make them into shining diamonds to keep you company forever.

At EverDear™, normally it will take about 100 grams of ashes or 2 grams of fur from your pet to make a 1-carat cremation diamond. Hair is a better source of carbon than cremated ashes. Therefore, even if your pet is very small, don’t worry if there are not enough ashes to make a diamond. A small amount of fur you preserved before cremation will provide enough carbon to make a diamond. You can also add your own hair as a source of carbon and share a diamond incorporating a deeper connection with your pet. With all these materials, Everdear™ can offer you diamonds from 0.1 carats to 2.29 carats. Other sizes of cremation diamonds can also be made by request.

Making a diamond out of your pet's ashes will allow your pet to participate in the rest of your life so they never miss a moment. By wearing a memorial diamond from ashes, you can always share the memory of your loving pet with those around you.
