I can't decide if this is creepy or not. Basically it's a company that uses the carbon from a cremated relative/pet to make a diamond.
I remember a story we ran at work a couple years ago about an artist that used ashes in paintings for the survivors. When I first heard about it I thought "Eww!" but after watching the piece it was very clear how much respect this artist had for the person whose ashes they were using. It came off as a very nice way to have something tangible of a loved one who is gone. The paintings were also of something emotionaly significant or relavent to the person that was gone. In the end I thought it was maybe not so creepy after all.
So, maybe having a diamond isn't really all that creepy either. A physical way to stay connected to someone who has left. It's something to think about anyway.
