Testing
That is why we test the material.
What are memorial diamonds?
These are personalized lab-grown diamonds.
We take a carbon source, such as ashes or hair, and use it to make a unique gem, which will forever remind you of your loved ones.
How do we grow the diamonds using cremation ashes?
Let’s get more technical for a moment.
The Process
Technical Process
Grinding the ashes
We begin the process by grinding the ashes, then remove the oxygen and hydrogen from them at low temperature.
Chemical treatments
Multi-step chemical treatments with a mix of mineral acids allows to separate and discard the ferric salts, calcium and other inclusions.
Removing the silicon compounds
Removing the silicon compounds is an excruciatingly long and difficult process.
Amorphous carbon
We need to use chemicals with very high purity, medical distilled water, and to strictly observe the technological process in order to obtain amorphous carbon with purity over 98.5%.
Heat treatment at over 2700°C
Heat treatment at over 2700°C in the presence of inert gas transforms its structure into layered graphite with purity over 99.9%. This process is called ‘graphitization’.

Submission kit
We send you an submission kit. Use the scale to measure 300g of ashes or 10 g of hair, and place them in the box. You can have a combined order /200g of ashes & 5g of hair/.

The couriers of FedEx or TNT deliver your package to our laboratory quickly and securely. Please send us the tracking number. We will inform you upon receiving it.
Advance payment of 50%
After we receive the advance payment of 50% of the price of your diamond, we begin the process. The remaining amount is due after the order is completed.
Growing the diamond
We then set out to grow your diamond, and will be sending you photos at the different stages of the process, as well as a one of your diamond before we ship it to you.
