Saint Diamonds Story
Founded in 2018 by Bernard Orlo, Saint Diamonds transforms grief into enduring beauty through a meticulous six-step process: purification of the remains, diamond growth in HPHT (High Pressure High Temperature) machines, expert polishing, certification, custom jewelry setting, and safe delivery. A grading report from trusted institutions then accompanied each diamond, such as IGI—and clients may opt for GIA certification if preferred.
What Makes Them Unique
Authentic, Lab‑Grown Diamonds with Emotional Resonance
These memorial diamonds are indistinguishable from natural diamonds in chemical, physical, and visual properties—only a trained gemologist can tell them apart
Personalized Diamonds and Certificate Assurance
Each creation is tied to a unique order ID to guarantee authenticity. Customers receive a certificate confirming the diamond’s origin from their loved one’s ashes.
Flexible and Compassionate Service
Clients can choose from a wide range of cuts—Round, Princess, Emerald, Heart, and more, with uncut options available at reduced prices. Colorless, blue, or yellow diamonds are popular choices; pink, red, and green require longer processing because of additional coloration steps.
Simple Submission Process & Generous Storage
To start the journey, the company offers a welcome kit. The company also offers secure carbon storage for future replacement diamonds, and they need only a half cup of ashes or hair (smaller amounts often work well).
Everything you wanted to know about the process
The process takes time
Roughly 6 months for colorless, blue, yellow, and black diamonds; up to 12 months for pink, red, and green-colored stones—owing to the additional irradiation process.
Materials are important
Typically, a half cup of ashes or hair is sufficient. Alternative carbon sources—like flower pieces or clothing—can supplement if needed.
Cremation Diamonds are real
These are, in fact, genuine diamonds; they’re lab-created and held to the same specifications as natural diamonds. The GIA or the IGI can certify them.
Authenticity is important
Unique order IDs, barcodes, and tracking across six inspection zones uphold a stringent chain of custody to ensure traceability and quality.
Insurance and replacements
Saint Diamonds stores excess carbon (with permission) to regrow a diamond in case of loss. They also offer insurance—typically 5% of the diamond’s cost per year—for protection.
International shipping and safety
Ships worldwide via insured, discreet packaging using FedEx/DHL. All deliveries require a signature, and lost shipments are refunded or replaced at no additional cost.
Pricing & Accessibility
Starting Prices
Memorial diamonds begin at $1,499 in the U.S. and £1,200 in the U.K., depending on carat size and color.
Flexible Options & Discounts
Financing plans are available (e.g., 0% APR across 6–24 months). Discounts include 5% off for additional diamonds, complimentary standard settings for ≥0.75 ct, and premium for ≥1.5 ct.
In the Words of Clients
“I did receive my ring yesterday and it is absolutely breathtaking. It’s still mind blowing to think that Sam’s ashes were turned into a beautiful diamond that I get to wear everyday. I am beyond happy with Sam’s memorial Diamond. It is even more beautiful than I could have imagined and I can’t stop looking at it.” — Lisa & Sam
“We called him TyTy. He was the sweetest cat I’ve ever know, the type of cat that makes people who previously hated cats into cat lovers. He traveled to college with me and was the closest thing I have had to a child.I had the diamond made so I could carry him with me everyday. I am able to carry his love and energy around with me and it feels like I can still connect with him.” – Darian and Tyler
A mother’s promise kept When her 12-year-old daughter passed away after a long illness, one mother in Chicago couldn’t bear to pack away her daughter’s things. Instead, she worked with Saint Diamonds to create a light blue diamond — her daughter’s favorite color. “Every morning, I wear the necklace,” she says. “It doesn’t erase the pain, but it reminds me of the promise I made — that she would always be close to me.”
The soldier who came home. A family in Texas lost their son while he was serving overseas. They chose to create a diamond from his hair and set it into a ring his father wears every day. “When I shake someone’s hand,” his father says, “I feel like my son is still part of the world.”
A shared bond between generations. In Toronto, two sisters decided to create matching diamonds from their mother’s ashes. One was set into a ring; the other, into earrings. “When we gather as a family,” one sister explains, “we both feel like Mom is still at the table every day.”
Saint Diamonds Difference
Grief is tough, and Saint Diamonds has created a process that is as gentle as possible. The first step is when families receive a Welcome Kit with simple instructions, a secure container, and prepaid, insured shipping.
Later, they provide updates at every stage of the process. Customers know where their diamond is on the journey. Regular communication becomes part of the healing.
“It’s not just about producing a diamond,” says Bernard Orlo, founder and CEO of Saint Diamonds. “It’s about supporting people through one of the hardest moments of their lives. We take that responsibility seriously.”
