It means using the carbon recovered from a small sample of ashes to grow a real diamond in a lab under controlled conditions — it's not a symbolic process, it's an actual scientific one using CVD (chemical vapor deposition) technology.

A small ash sample is collected, carbon is extracted and cleaned, then placed inside a growth chamber. Under plasma conditions, the carbon breaks into atoms that slowly settle onto a diamond seed, building the diamond layer by layer. Once complete, the stone is cut and polished.

Only the carbon extracted from the ashes is used — the ashes don't directly "turn into" a diamond in one step. It's a gradual, multi-stage lab process, not an instant transformation.

This collection features 147 products, primarily rings in a wide range of styles — including solitaire, halo, three-stone, bezel-set, and vintage floral designs — set mainly in 14K white or yellow gold.

Traditional memorial jewelry keeps ashes sealed inside a compartment, with the material staying unchanged. Here, the carbon is converted into a diamond, so nothing is stored — you're wearing something structurally solid rather than something preserved.

Prices in this collection range from around $999 for smaller carat rings up to $6,999 for larger, more elaborate designs, depending on carat weight, cut, and setting complexity.

It's a real scientific process — the carbon is grown into a diamond using lab-based CVD methods under controlled conditions, the same core technology used for other lab-grown diamonds.
