Turn Your Loved One’s Memorial Ashes into Forever Diamonds

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. While many people choose to bury their loved ones in a cemetery, place the cremated ashes in a traditional urn, or scatter the ashes in a meaningful place, these options may not be attractive to you. 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 cremated ashes 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 memorial 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 ashes into diamonds is actually using the carbon extracted from the ashes to create diamonds in a lab environment. After memorial, 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 memorial. 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.

Lab-grown diamonds grown from ashes are virtually identical to naturally mined diamonds; they are both created in the same way. Under high pressure and high temperature, the carbon atoms will form into special "diamond metrics" to create ultra-durable diamonds. The only difference is that a cremated diamond is converted in a laboratory from the ashes of a loved one, while a mined diamond is formed from natural carbon in the Earth's environment over billions of years.

To make a diamond from ashes, a laboratory specialist will first perform a detailed chemical analysis of the ashes you provide and extract the carbon from them. The carbon purified from the ashes is then placed into a sophisticated machine that simulates the environment deep within the Earth's crust, creating the extremely high temperatures and pressures needed to turn the carbon into diamonds.

The high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) conditions used to turn ashes into diamonds require temperatures of up to 2,500°C and pressures of up to 60,000 atmospheres. After several weeks of exposure to these extreme conditions, your unique memorial diamond is born.

The cost for turning cremated ashes or hair into 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 depends on the color and cut of the diamond you want. However, the carat weight plays one of the most important roles in determining the price of a lab-grown diamond.

It is certain that the bigger the diamond you want to turn ashes into, 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 also 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 ashes into diamonds but are limited by a tight budget, EverDear, with the best price worldwide, will be your ideal choice.

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 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.
