A jewel of a person
Diamonds have always been a symbol of eternal love and remembrance. ALGORDANZA memorial diamonds make it possible to immortalise your remembrance of a loved one in a uniquely personal token of love.
The death of a person often hits us hard, so much so that it may seem almost impossible to say goodbye to them. In the hectic, ever-changing world of today, it is often almost impossible for relatives to find time to visit a grave. For this reason we would like to help you make your wish for a remembrance and expression of your love come true.
ALGORDANZA memorial diamonds promote a philosophy of preservation and the revival of a culture of remembering our dead. Even now, ALGORDANZA memorial diamonds represent a place of remembrance for many people in our mobile society, and give family members the opportunity to make a conscious and self-determined decision to “let go” by handing a remembrance on to the next generation!
Every diamond is unique
Just as liquid water may, under naturally occurring conditions, turn to ice, we reinterpret the process of returning to the earth in a similar way by transforming ashes into unique diamonds.
Every person is unique, not least because of their different lifestyles and environmental influences. These have a measurable impact on the chemical composition of the ashes. ALGORDANZA memorial diamonds are created exclusively from the cremation ashes, and therefore some memorial diamonds may gleam brilliantly white while others are more blue – no two stones are identical, just as each person is unique in life.
An ALGORDANZA Memorial Diamond™ is....
- a beautiful and timeless connection to your loved one
- unique and individual
- your uniquely personal location for sorrow, remembrance and joy
- an everlasting heirloom for generations
Prices:
0.4 ct rough diamond: € 4.520,-

Guaranteed no added ingredients
ALGORDANZA memorial diamonds are made from human carbons. Before each transformation, the ashes are examined to determine their chemical composition. A “chemical fingerprint” is obtained which provides an extremely precise indication of the individual chemical composition of the ashes. ALGORDANZA supplies a certificate guaranteeing that the memorial diamond is made exclusively from the urn ashes supplied.
Purity and brilliance
We create every diamond with the utmost care. Most ALGORDANZA memorial diamonds achieve, as a minimum, the quality level of SI (small inclusions). The particular nature and uniqueness of each memorial diamond mean that the inclusions can also be quite individual. These emphasise the character of the unique diamond.
Colour
The colour of an ALGORDANZA memorial diamond will range from white to blue. ALGORDANZA guarantees the natural colouration of the stone, and no additional colouring agents are added.
Respect
The transformation of the ashes is conducted with the greatest possible care and respect, because the dignity of the deceased is very important to us. ALGORDANZA voluntarily endorses the guidelines for professional conduct of German, Austrian and Swiss undertakers. ALGORDANZA processes all data with discretion worthy of the Swiss, and does not transfer any personal or confidential data to third parties. ALGORDANZA is a member of the Swiss Association of Funeral Services. Every contract includes a codicil which enables both you and us to follow the transformation process from receipt of the urn ashes to the final evaluation and handover. We will be pleased to disclose any information regarding the status of the transformation of your diamond to you upon request.

Alternative funeral types
Danube River burial
With this kind of natural burial, the ashes are placed in a particular type of urn and then given to the water.
Entombment
An entombment in Vienna is very similar to a burial. It simply involves a stone-walled room rather than an earthen grave. The casket is also different – the casket will be either made from or lined with metal and must be completely airtight.
Angel babies
Infants who die during pregnancy or at birth are known as “angel babies”. We will assist if you wish to hold a funeral ceremony in Vienna for an angel baby, and we will keep the expenses of such a ceremony to a minimum.
