What is a LifeGem?
A LifeGem is a certified, high quality diamond created from the carbon of your beloved companion as a memorial to their unique and wonderful life.
The LifeGem provides a way to embrace your animal companion’s memory day by day. The LifeGem is the most unique and timeless memorial available for creating a testimony to their unique life and unconditional love. We hope and believe that your LifeGem memorial will offer comfort and support when and where you need it, and provide a lasting memory that endures forever, as a diamond does.
Because if you are reading this, you are going through one of life's toughest times. We know because we’ve been there. Nothing will ever replace the special bond we develop with our devoted animal companions, and the LifeGem is certainly not meant to, but it does provide comfort through an everlasting connection and closeness to the ones we have lost.
How is a LifeGem Created?
High-quality created diamonds have been present for many years. These diamonds are created by placing carbon, the primary element of all diamonds, in conditions that recreate the forces of earth. We are merely choosing an exact carbon source to create a beautiful and meaningful memorial for you and your family. In summary, here is how we create your LifeGem...
Step 1. Collection We have discovered how to capture the carbon by extracting it from existing cremated remains. This step takes place at one of our many certified locations across the country.
Step 2. Purification Once captured, this carbon is heated to extremely high temperatures under special conditions. During this phase, the carbon in the ashes coalesces with the natural carbon used in the diamond growth process, allowing the carbon from the deceased to be removed intact from the provided ash remains. While removing the existing ash, this process converts the carbon to graphite with unique characteristics and elements that will create a one-of-a-kind LifeGem diamond like no other in this world.
Step 3. Creation To create your LifeGem, we now place this graphite in one of our unique diamond presses replicating the awesome forces of nature - heat and pressure. The longer the press time, the larger the rough diamond crystal that results.
Step 4. Certification Finally, our skilled diamond cutters facet your LifeGem diamond(s) according to your wishes, laser etch the girdle, and certify it for authenticity.
The LifeGem Diamond
A diamond that takes millions of years to occur naturally can now be created from the carbon of your loved one in about eighteen weeks.
Certified, high quality diamonds created from the carbon of your loved one as a memorial to their unique life. Yes, these are real diamonds. LifeGem created diamonds are identical to natural diamonds in every aspect - brilliance, fire, luster, and hardness. Like the rarest diamonds found in nature, your stunning LifeGem diamond will make a unique statement. As you can see, the LifeGem diamonds are a brilliant and beautiful yellow, like a sunset captured in time.
The only difference is that natural diamonds are formed with an arbitrary carbon source, and we choose an exact carbon source to create a one-of-a-kind memorial to your loved one. Like the most precious and rare natural diamonds, the LifeGem allows you to choose from a range of carat sizes and cuts. One of the most popular questions is, "How many LifeGem diamonds can a family choose when they've lost a loved one?" The answer is many; in fact, more than 50 1ct.
