How much does it cost to turn diamonds to ashes?
The price for turning ashes to diamonds depends on the type of diamond you choose, including the size, color and cut.
A 0.03 - 0.09 carat orange-yellow brilliant-cut diamond is one historical example. Compare the current carat ranges and colors in our price guide.
Having such a wide variety of cremation diamonds to choose from guarantees you’ll find the perfect diamond which not only suits your budget, but is a wonderful representation of the person you want to remember, too.
Cremation costs vs funeral costs
Another reason cremation diamonds are a cost effective option is because cremations are much cheaper than burials. According to USA Today, a cremation costs around $2,200, while a burial costs approximately $6,500. That’s a sizable difference of $4,300.
Compare your funeral provider’s quote with the diamond and setting you would like; the complete total depends on the options you choose.
Finance plans
Pay a 50% deposit and the remaining 50% before delivery, or choose a payment plan through Affirm, subject to eligibility and approval.
How long does it take to turn diamonds to ashes?
Diamond production takes around 90 days from receipt of your material. Jewelry settings and other optional services can add time.
Although cremation diamonds are much faster to make than mined diamonds, they’re actually the same thing. Cremation diamonds and mined diamonds are identical in terms of chemical makeup and visual appearance. They both sparkle the same, are equally as long-lasting and are formed within high pressure, high temperature environments.
Making diamonds from cremated remains is a complex and specialist craft. After extracting pure carbon from the ashes sample, the conditions found miles below the Earth’s crust are replicated within a laboratory setting. Several weeks later, a beautiful rough diamond is created. After a little cutting and polishing, your one-of-a-kind memorial diamond is ready to be shipped to your door.
Turn your loved one’s ashes to diamonds for an ever-lasting keepsake
Making a one-of-a-kind diamond out of the ashes of your loved one is a wonderful way to hold onto their memory. Designing the diamond from scratch, choosing its colour, size and cut before selecting a beautiful jewelry setting to complement it is a helpful way to help you progress through the grieving process.
A notably affordable option for many people, especially when you compare the low cost of a cremation to the high price of a burial, making a unique cremation diamond can help you keep your loved one close to you in spirit, even if they can no longer be there in person.
