A Swiss company Algordanza wants to change the way people mourn by transforming the remains of their loved ones into gems. Algordanza invented new process to convert your loved one’s ashes into a Diamond which you can keep as valuable remembrance possibly wear it forever, remembering and honouring your loved one. These are typically called Cremation Diamonds which are real, certified, and are used in making quality jewelry.
Cremation diamonds provide way to embrace your loved ones memory day by day and quickly become a family heirloom.
As per Algordanza, it all begins with a chemical process that extracts the carbon from the departed’s ashes. This carbon is then heated to convert it into graphite. That graphite is then heated to as many as 2,700 degrees Fehrenheit and subjected to forces as high as 870,000 pounds per square inch. The color of the finished diamond, which can range from white to dark blue, depends on the boron content of the ashes of the deceased. The prices begin at 4,259 Swiss Francs ($4,474 USD) for a small diamond with no additional service.
Every diamond from each person is slightly different. It’s always a unique diamond.It only takes about a pound of ashes to make a single diamond.
“I don’t know why, but if the diamond is blue, and the deceased also had blue eyes, I hear almost every time that the diamond had the same color as the eyes of the deceased,” says CEO Willy, who personally delivers the diamonds to his Swiss customers.
The color of each Algordanza diamond results from the specific combination of trace elements present in an individual’s body. Fake teeth, titanium hips, or the remnants of chemotherapy can all impact color. Nitrogen lends a yellow hue. Traces of phosphorescent chemicals can produce diamonds that glow in the dark.
