To grow a memorial diamond, Eterneva requires ½ cup of cremated ashes or about 5 grams of hair. From this amount of carbon, Eterneva is able to create one to five cremation diamonds.

Families often ask how many diamonds can be made from one person. The truth is, the answer is a lot. By carefully portioning the carbon, you can grow multiple diamonds for different family members, each carrying the same remarkable connection.
