2: Transforming Pet Ashes into Memorial Diamonds as Keepsakes 


Pet owners who want to honor their beloved pets have found a special way to do so. Turning pet ashes into diamonds is becoming a popular choice.

The science behind this transformation is truly fascinating. 


  • Carbon Extraction: When your pet’s ashes are collected, the carbon within them is carefully extracted.

  • Diamond Creation: This process transforms the carbon into a real, lab-grown diamond.


The result is a gorgeous, sparkling pet ashes keepsake that holds a world of meaning and emotion. These diamonds create a lasting connection to your pet. You can wear or hold them as a reminder of your bond.

"Our dog has been with us for more than 13 years. We handed his ashes to LONITE to make them into diamonds. The little yellow flower suits our dog, so we chose amber for his diamonds. The resulting yellow diamonds are very pretty.


I ordered two diamonds, one for me and one for my sister. There are subtle differences in the color of the two diamonds, thus each is indeed the only diamond in the world.


To wear it every day, I chose Tomoni's jewelry to set the diamonds, which is quite cute. It also reminds me of the happy times I had with my dog. I am very fortunate to have chosen LONITE's pet ashes diamond service."
