It’s a conversation everyone should have. And our process gives you the peace of mind to know their next steps are taken care of.
The amount of decisions needed after someone you love passes can feel overwhelming, and many people choose to pre-plan to help those they love in their absence. The Eterneva Declaration of Will will help make your wishes known. Simply print and sign the document, and keep it with your important documents like your birth certificate. Let your family know where to find them. These are the first documents your family and funeral director will need in the event of your passing.
We’ll work with you to help sign your customer up and start the journey to turn their loved one into a diamond. We’ll send all the tools needed to collect the ashes or hair to start the journey.
Their ashes or hair will then be purified to isolate the carbon. As soon as we get their carbon back, you and their loved ones will get a first look with the Eterneva team at the sparkly material your ashes or hair have transformed into.
Their carbon will be put into a diamond growth cell and grown in the Eterneva diamond growth lab. All diamonds are grown individually, and you and their loved ones will get regular video updates of the entire growth journey.
Once their raw diamond has emerged, it’s time to cut, polish, color, grade, and set it in pieces they can carry with them into their next chapter.

Yes, there is more than enough carbon in ashes to grow a Diamond. We work closely with TDI Brooks International, a world-renowned carbon testing and forensic organization, to test the carbon contents in cremated remains, hair, and aquamation ashes.
The cremated remains sample contained 3.28% carbon, the hair sample to contained 36.66% carbon, and the aquamation sample to contained 16.91% carbon.
