Our
process

The creation of personal diamonds takes a unique patented technology, transparent production process and sincere commitment to celebrating lives and love stories around the world.

We are always evolving to make sure our clients receive the best service possible

Our diamond creation process is designed to be simple, intuitive and impressively fast: we know you can’t wait to receive your sparkling gem, and we are always here to make it happen.

3 billion years faster

Did you know natural diamonds usually take from 1 to 3.3 billion years to grow deep under the Earth’s crust? Fortunately, you don’t need to wait for this long to receive your unique gemstone: at Heart In Diamond, it takes us only 75 to 120 days on average to produce a genuine diamond. We are proud to let you know that this production time is the fastest on the market, and we are doing our best every day to make it even faster for you.

In order to create a personal diamond, we extract carbon from the original sample (whether it’s hair, ashes or an alternative organic material) and use it to create the diamond core foundation. Shortly after, the foundation is placed in the HPHT (High-Pressure-High-Temperature) machine, which recreates the process of a natural diamond creation with the help of extreme temperatures of 3,632°F and pressure levels of 60,000 Atmospheres.

6 steps of your diamond creation

Step 1

Order Placement

The diamond creation process starts with requesting your Heart In Diamond Order Kit and placing your order. Once we process your details, we will issue your individual Heart In Diamond ID. Please feel free to use it to track the status of your order through our Track your Order page.

To learn more about placing your order, please visit our “How to Order” page.

Step 2

Material Analysis

Once your materials arrive at the laboratory, they undergo a detailed analysis which will help us define its chemical composition and extract the necessary amount of carbon from it. We would like to kindly remind you that we usually require our clients to send us 2⁄3 cup (5.3 oz) of ashes or 1⁄2 cup (0.07 oz) of hair regardless of the diamond size.

Step 3

Diamond foundation formation

We extract the carbon from your sample and add it to the diamond growing foundation, out of which a unique crystalline matrix will grow, creating a personal diamond.

Step 4

Growing Phase

The mixture is placed in the core of the HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) machine. This unique and complex machinery will recreate diamond-growing conditions, similar to those deep in the Earth’s crust: typical HPHT conditions are in excess of 2000℃ and 60,000 atmospheres. These conditions will be applied to grow your personal diamond.

Step 5

Cutting and Polishing

Once the growing phase is completed, our specialists will polish and cut your diamond in accordance with industry standards and your preferences. You will get a diamond which sparkles without and within!

Step 6

Certification and Delivery

After the diamond is cut and polished, it goes through our strict quality control and grading processes. When all the above is done, we issue an Authenticity Certificate containing all the details about your personal diamond. Your diamond will be transported to a local Heart In Diamond office, where our managers will organize the prompt delivery of your diamond.
