Not only do they provide a lovely way to keep your loved one close with you, they can act as a family heirloom to be passed down through the generations.

While these cremation diamonds can be created to fit into many budgets, they can still come in a ta high price point. If you wish to learn more about cremation diamonds, as well as ways to lower the cost, keep reading.

What is a Cremation Diamond?

A cremation diamond is simply a diamond that is created with a portion of your loved one’s cremains. Many companies do this and the process is much like that of how a natural diamond forms. However, these companies will create the diamond in a laboratory and speed up the process dramatically. The product is a diamond that you can then have set in a piece of jewelry or use as a keepsake.

How to Save Money with a Cremation Diamond

There are several factors that can affect a diamond’s appearance as well as price. By modifying these factors, you can better create a diamond that is within your budget. Let’s explore some of these factors.

- Color- Cremation diamonds, just as natural diamonds, can be available in several colors. Choosing colors such as yellow, orange, or colorless diamonds will be a less expensive choice than say choosing colors such as green, black, blue, or red which tend to be more costly.

- Size- Diamonds are measured in carats. The higher the carat count, the more expensive the diamond will be. Selecting a smaller carat size can greatly reduce the price.

- Clarity- While natural diamonds are also measured in clarity, some cremation diamonds may also have options for clarity. The more expensive options will be those diamonds that have the most clarity.

Other than modifying the choices on the diamond, there are other ways to save overall with your cremation diamond. One of these ways is to consider the setting it will be going in. Choosing a less expensive or metal setting can be one way to save. Another even more budget friendly option is to use a setting you already have.

Another way to save is to work with a cremation diamond consultant. Many cremation diamond providers have consultants that will work with families one-on-one to help them choose the best diamond for their needs and their budget. It is not always easy to make decisions when you are experiencing grief and having a consultant to help guide you can make a big difference.

Final Thoughts

Choosing to have a cremation diamond made with a portion of your loved one’s cremains is a wonderful way to not only keep your loved one close to you but also create a keepsake that can be with your family for generations to come. While these keepsakes can be pricey, by working with a cremation diamond consultant and being selective in your choices, you can lower the overall cost making it much more affordable and budget-friendly.
