GIA Certified Diamonds from Cremated Human Remains.

Another after-death option (albeit somewhat non-traditional). The 4C's still apply and price per carat is not cheap.

Curious. Who would wear these diamonds? Do they make good family heirlooms and for the saavy investor (or speculator), will they retain any extrinsic value? Factory tours are available and a convenient nationwide 'store locator' (e.g. various funeral parlors) is provided via the company webpage.

Just goes to show that regardless of one's inherent wealth everyone is still a 'diamond in the rough'.
