Cremation Diamonds
Our Memorial Cremation Diamonds are genuine diamonds crafted from the cremated ashes of your loved one, serving as a beautiful tribute to their unique life. As a preferred partner of Algordanza Diamonds, we assure you that each diamond is a lasting keepsake, a remembrance, or even a cherished heirloom to pass down through generations.
These memorial diamonds shine in shades from pure white to a delicate bluish tint, depending on the natural presence of boron in the carbon. After synthesis, each rough diamond is carefully cut and polished to your specifications and can be inscribed with a personal message of up to 50 characters.
Each Cremation Diamond is presented in an elegant protective case, accompanied by a certificate signed by Algordanza’s founder, which guarantees the diamond’s authenticity, origin, color, size, and weight.
How Cremation Diamonds Are Made
1. The cremated remains, or human elements, undergo a thorough analysis.
2. Non-carbon elements are dissolved, leaving only raw organic carbon with trace amounts of boron, which influence the diamond's color.
3. The organic carbon is converted into graphite, then placed in a Diamond Press along with a starter diamond crystal. Under extreme conditions—2700°F and 1,000,000 psi—the graphite crystallizes, forming a new diamond structure that mirrors the molecular structure of the starter crystal.
4. Once crystallized to the specified carat weight, the diamond is removed from the press, and the natural diamond crystal is cut from the rough. The rough diamond is then shaped and polished to the desired form.
5. If chosen, the diamond is sent for laser engraving. If not, it is prepared for delivery.
