How Memorial Diamonds Keep Your Loved One’s Memory Forever
There are many ways to honor and pay tribute to those who have changed our lives after they have passed away, and wearing memorial diamond jewellery is one of the most special remembrances.
Last Forever
Just like natural diamonds found in the earth, memorial diamonds from cremation ashes can last forever. A diamond that reminds you of a loved one is an amazing gift that you can always bring with you. It is also a gift that will stand the test of time.
Emotion Support
A memorial diamond can help heal the grief of losing a loved one. Diamonds can serve as a symbol of your love and respect by physically representing the emotions that remain after the passed away of your loved one.
Wearable Remembrance
Cremation diamond jewellery keepsakes can be taken anywhere and worn on any occasion. It is nice to know that you can still share your experience with your loved ones by turning their cremation ashes into a memorial diamond. This process can become a part of an important turning point in your life.
The Science and Remembrance in Memorial Diamond
How to Create a Memorial Diamond
Submit Cremated Ashes to Our Laboratory
In general, creating a memorial diamond up to 0.30 carats requires 1/3 cup (5 1/3 tbsp) or about 2 ounces (50 grams) of ashes from your loved one. When your order is confirmed, please ensure that the ashes are packed in a suitable container that is tightly sealed (e.g., a zip-lock bag, or a tupperware) and sent to the address provided. Once our lab receives the ashes, the experts will perform several processes to purify the ashes.
Carbon Extraction
In the EverDear™ laboratory, carbon is extracted from the cremated ashes to create a memorial diamond. The ashes must be purified to a high level to meet the jewellery standards. All the ashes received by EverDear™ are heated in a vacuum and purified through various refining processes. Depending on the desired colour for the memorial diamond created, the degree of processing varies.
Due to the fact that the ashes contain nitrogen, memorial diamonds created from ashes are naturally yellow. After the nitrogen is removed, the memorial diamond will be blue because of the presence of boron. To create high clarity colourless memorial diamonds, EverDear™ will completely purify the ashes up to 99.99%. As the amount of trace elements in the ashes of each person is different, the results are always unique.
HPHT Process
To create memorial diamonds from ashes or hair, High-Pressure High-Temperature (HPHT) processing is one of the most efficient methods. Natural diamonds are formed over billions of years when carbon is exposed to extremely high pressure and high temperature underground. HPHT devices are used to simulate this natural environment and can shorten the whole procedure to only a few months.
The highly-purified carbon from ashes is melted in the interior of the HPHT device which is heated to over 2000°C. Then, the melted carbon is transported into a tiny diamond seed, which begins to grow like a shining star and, eventually, forms a genuine raw diamond.
Cutting and Polishing
After the HPHT process, the carbon from ashes is turned into a raw, uncut diamond that does not exhibit its natural beauty and brilliance. Our experienced artisans will polish and cut the memorial diamond to reveal its true potential while keeping the maximum carat weight.
We usually recommend a brilliant cut that maximises the brilliance and beauty of the diamond. Our experts use the most advanced tools and artisanship to ensure accurate work on your diamond. If you prefer a different cut, they will carefully choose the optimal cutting angles to show the best clarity and sparkle for the customised diamond shape of your choice.
The Soulful Power of Spreading Light
Customise Your Loved One’s Ashes into a Unique Memorial Diamond
EverDear ™ specialises in creating memorial diamonds and making them into customised memorial diamond jewellery. No two EverDear ™ remembrance diamonds are alike; how the final diamond looks depends on the carbon and other elements in the ashes. Many of our specially designed diamond jewellery uses a solitaire diamond design, which is the most classical and definitely the most popular choice among all styles. It highlights the beauty of your memorial diamond and makes your unique love stand out.
Colour Choices for EverDear™ Memorial Diamond
EverDear™ offers 7 diamonds. Including: Yellow, Blue, Green, Red, Pink, Colourless, and Black.
Pink
Blue
Yellow
Red
Green
Colourless
Black
It is a romantic and sweet colour. The colour rose pink is relaxing and harmonious, reminiscent of beautiful emotions, and symbolises sweetness. Therefore, the symbolic meaning of pink diamonds is a sign of luck, which means happiness, and it is also a wish for yourself.
Blue is regarded as a colour representing healing and hope. It is the quintessential heavenly color, evoking a sense of tranquility. When you wear a diamond with the heavenly blue colour, you will feel peaceful and recall your best memories. Moreover, it also means rest in peace for your beloved.
Warm yellow is the colour of gold, and it is loaded with joy, richness, and glory. It is also regarded as a symbol of dignity, giving people a sense of grace and luxury. Wearing a yellow diamond can also reflect your noble and extraordinary temperament, which is the best interpretation of your beautiful memory.
The red diamond colour symbolises passion, power, and ritual. Your love will be most profoundly interpreted in the shade of diamonds, representing undying love that lasts forever. At the same time, red diamonds are also scarce, symbolizing the unique love.
The green diamonds symbolise growth, harmony, freshness, and abundance. In addition, green is also the most friendly and relaxing colour for human eyes. It represents stamina and stability. In contrast, emerald green diamonds are a symbol of peace and also express indelible love.
Colourless diamonds represent holiness, peace, and contentment, and it is recognized as one of the most popular diamond colors worldwide, representing balance and contentment. The colourless diamonds symbolise absolute purity, marking a crystalline and fresh new start to a beautiful love journey.
The intuitive feeling of a Black diamond is solemnity and mourning, so it means eternal mourning and commemoration. Moreover, in the retro style that has become popular in recent years, when black gemstones have become the central role on the jewellery stage, it has become synonymous with dignity and fashion.

Authenticity of EverDear™ Memorial Diamonds
EverDear™ Memorial Diamonds are Real Diamonds
Memorial diamonds are lab-grown diamonds made from the ashes or hair of a loved one who passed away. These diamonds are made of crystallised carbon, just as natural diamonds are. Memorial diamonds and mined diamonds possess the same chemical, optical and physical properties. The only difference between lab-created memorial diamonds and natural mined diamonds is the source of carbon and the environment in which they are formed.
Natural diamonds are formed under the earth's crust over millions of years, where natural carbon is crystalised under extremely high pressure and high temperature. A memorial diamond is created by placing the carbon from cremains through the same circumstances, only in a lab setting. The way they are created as well as professional institutions can prove that memorial diamonds are also real diamonds.
GIA Certification for Memorial Diamonds
The Gemological Institute of America (GIA), is one of the world's leading geological research institute. GIA is world renown for being extremely strict and very consistent. All EverDear’s GIA certificated memorial diamonds are real diamonds that come with a detailed report which includes a full quality analysis of shape and cutting style, measurements, carat weight, color grade, clarity grade, cut grade (for brilliant round-cut diamonds), polish, and other detailed information about the diamond.
IGI Certification for Memorial Diamonds
The certification and report from International Gemological Institute (IGI) is another common language of trust and confidence in the gemological world. IGI reports are considered an authoritative resource for authenticity and quality assessment worldwide. Ever EverDear’s IGI certificated memorial diamonds have a report that indicates the assessment in controlled conditions and detailed relevant gemological characteristics according to the strictest international system.

Honoring a Life Well Lived
A Better Choice to Honor the Memory of a Loved One
1. Memorial Diamonds VS. Interment of Ashes
Many people choose to bury ashes in a cemetery or place them in a columbarium. However, these traditional ways do not allow us to honor our loved ones whenever we want. In comparison, turning your loved one’s ashes into a memorial diamond is a much more beautiful option for honoring and presenting a dignified celebration of your loved one’s life. Every memorial diamond is a symbol of the uniqueness of the dearly departed and can be set into memorial jewellery. It is a wonderful way to hold your loved one close, and preserve your precious memories eternally.
2. Memorial Diamonds VS. Scattering Ashes
When you think about scattering your loved one's cremated remains, there are many issues to consider. There are many legal restrictions. There is no permanent memorial site. Even if you can visit the area, there is no monument to the person, making it difficult to hold the sentimental connection, to commemorate, and to honor them. However, by turning the ashes into a memorial diamond, to maintain a loving connection with your loved ones and keep them with you always. A memorial diamond is a unique memento to keep a loved one’s ashes close by and to remember them with an everlasting memorial.
3. Memorial Diamonds VS. Ashes in the Urn
For the bereaved, keeping ashes in an urn at home can be a way to hold onto the feeling of connection with the deceased after they’ve gone. However, turning ashes into diamonds not only allows the surviving family to feel connected and close to the people who passed away, but also enables them to carry them with you wherever you go. Gazing at the shiny memorial diamond is like seeing the twinkle in a lost loved one’s eyes. The memorial diamond made from ashes can be made into a unique and beautiful piece of jewellery, which stays with you for the rest of your life. It also becomes a family treasure to be passed on from generation to generation.
FAQs about Memorial Diamonds
-
Memorial 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. Memorial diamonds grown in this way are absolutely real diamonds that share the same physical and chemical properties as natural mined diamonds. Moreover, memorial diamonds made by EverDear™ are certificated and graded by professional gemological institutions such as GIA and IGI.
-
Carbon is the fundamental component of life, and everything that is alive is made of carbon, including your pet. Since diamonds are entirely constructed of carbon, and all living creatures contain copious amounts of carbon, it is possible to create diamonds from animal ashes. 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.
Making a remembrance 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 keepsake made from ashes, you can always share the memory of your loving pet with those around you.
-
Diamonds can be made out of hair. Human hair contains large amounts of Carbon which is the element that makes up a diamond. This means that we can now turn hair into lab-grown diamonds by using specialized technology to extract carbon from hair. The diamond can be created out of the hair of one or multiple people, or even be made from your pet’s fur.
Human hair contains about 45% of Carbon which can be used to create diamonds. To grow a memorial diamond in the laboratory, only a small amount of hair is needed.You can use a jar or a sealed box to contain the hair and send it to our headquarters for diamond production. After the laboratory has received your hair, our experts will analyze components of the hair and extract the carbon within. The carbon from the hair sample will then be put under a high-pressure high-temperature environment to form into a diamond.
-
Turning cremated ashes into memorial 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 this 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.
