Definitive Guide to Memorial Diamonds

It's a deeply personal decision. Many families worldwide have chosen a diamond burial, including those from the United States, Switzerland, Germany, Japan, and, more lately, China.


What Exactly Is a Memorial Diamond?

A memorial diamond, in scientific terms, is a form of actual diamond made from the carbon extracted from cremated ashes, hair, or both. Diamonds are generated in nature under extreme pressure over an extended time. For the memorialization procedure, this process occurs in a lab.

A lab-grown diamond can be made from roughly 10 grams (0.4 ounces) of human hair or 200 grams (8 ounces) of ashes.

Diamonds are made entirely of carbon, and carbon makes up 18% of the human body. The refined carbon from hair, cremated bones, or cremation ashes is used to make cremation diamonds. Cremation diamonds have been confirmed by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), The European Gemological Laboratory (EGL), and the International Gemological Institute (IGI) as real diamonds.

How Long Does It Take to Make A Memorial Diamond?

Cremation diamonds are real diamonds created from human or pet ashes. The carbon will be extracted from the cremation ashes. Then, a high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) machine will squeeze the material into a cremation diamond.

Turning the ashes into certified cremation diamonds usually takes 6 months on average. The production time is also determined by the size and color requested. An additional 1 to 2 months is needed with a GIA certification and laser inscription.

How Much Does A Memorial Diamond Cost?

Memorial diamonds are more affordable compared to natural diamonds. There are no huge mining costs, and it is environmentally friendly. The price of turning ashes into diamonds at LONITÉ™ starts from $1,400. The price varies depending on the color, cut, and size of the lab-created diamond. Extra customized services such as jewelry settings, engravings, and GIA certification are also provided.

Cremation Diamonds Are as Real as Natural Diamonds.

Cremation diamonds and natural diamonds have identical optical, physical, and chemical properties. It is impossible to differentiate with the naked eye. Your cremation diamonds will be accompanied by a GIA certificate of authenticity. An order tracking system is also available to track the entire process.

Lab-grown Diamonds Are Meaningful and Cost-effective

Lab-grown diamonds are more modern than the other burial options. The magnificent memorial diamond can be made into a piece of diamond jewelry and worn by families to honor your loss gracefully. A diamond burial is also less expensive than private burial plots or wall niches, even without the possibility of long waiting lists.

A lab-grown diamond overcomes not only the scarcity posed by traditional burial and wall niches but also the ashes scattering. Once your loved one's ashes have been scattered, you appear to "lose" what's left of them. The ashes of your loved one will be synthesized into a stunning everlasting memory diamond, which you can have by your side till the end of your days if you choose a diamond burial.
