Diamonds from Ashes or Hair by BLUEICE GEMS™

A Symbol of Love

Cremation ashes into diamonds

BlueIce Gems Memorial Diamonds, also known as ash diamonds, are grown from the cremation ashes or hair of a human. Pure carbon is first extracted from the cremated remains, then using special HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) presses and Swiss precision, your loved one is turned into a diamond.

Created from 100% of your loved one

BlueIce Gems is the only memorial diamond company who guarantees that your personal diamond is made of 100% of your loved one’s ashes or hair. We do not add generic carbon or artificially color any diamonds.

The cost of a memorial diamond is usually not higher than the expected costs associated with a traditional burial and grave maintenance.

How we turn ashes into diamonds

BlueIce Gems developed an advanced process to extract carbon from ashes in 2003 and has been improving it ever since.
In order to be able to grow a diamond from ashes or hair, we need at least 500g of cremation ashes or at least 5g of hair. From the ashes or hair we extract the carbon, which we then convert into graphite and later transform into a diamond. Using special presses, we simulate the extreme pressure and high temperatures that are necessary for the formation of genuine diamonds.
Each diamond is unique and as singular as the loved one from which it was created.

The memorial diamond: an heirloom for eternity

Compared to traditional types of funerals, the cremation diamond represents a very personal type of mourning, remembrance and joy. Especially in times of increasing mobility in our society and subsequent distance to the family, grave maintenance can be difficult, which makes the memorial diamond a beautiful and practical alternative.

The memorial diamond is an incredibly valuable keepsake for the bereaved, which is privately kept or openly displayed. It can be kept in the diamond box alongside a photograph at home, or discreetly set in a ring or pendant so that you can always carry and honor your loved one.
