Call me selfish, but I like my diamonds and my big house! (as long as I don't have to mow the yard):green:

(and I was laughin' at your last post and tried to 'rep' ya, but I have to spread it around first. I'll come back and get ya later!)

i'm ~bling~ free....not by nature and certainly not by choice

But it's the ones that don't that have me bothered.

Hoarsie, we're gonna have to get you some bling. There's just nothing like that feeling in the world! You can have all the bling you want without the man. That's the good part!!!

Question asked of Widow; "Is that a Diamond your late husband gave you?"

"No, not really. It's my husband-diamond."

LifeGem®. More than a Breakthrough.


Created Individually For You

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 nature. The LifeGem® process differs by using an exact carbon source to create a beautiful and meaningful diamond memorial for you and your family.

In summary, here is how we create your LifeGem diamond...

Step 1. Carbon Capture - After extensive research and development, we have discovered how to extract the carbon from existing cremated remains. This process begins with a portion of remains from any standard cremation.

Step 2. Purification - Once captured, this carbon is heated to extremely high temperatures under special conditions. While removing the existing ash, this process converts your loved one’s carbon to graphite with unique characteristics and elements that will create your 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, which replicate the awesome forces deep within the earth - heat and pressure. The more time in the press, 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 your unique identifier on the girdle, and certify it for authenticity. All LifeGem diamonds are individually inspected, graded, and identified by world-renowned gemologists trained by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). The world’s finest jewelers use this same certification process.

A diamond that takes millions of years to occur naturally can now be created from the carbon of your loved one in about twenty-four weeks.

Oh

God



That's too weird. Then again, it's a hell of a bunch cheaper than a cemetary plot and casket!
