Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is my diamond made from?
You can provide any organic materials such as grass, flowers, leaves, or even sentimental items like pieces of a golf ball, as long as they contain carbon. We will guide you on how to prepare and send them to us.
2. Is it a real diamond?
Yes, Bienne diamonds are atomically identical to naturally occuring diamonds. Bienne diamonds although grown by humans are in fact 100% real and identical to mined diamonds in chemical composition, hardness, and brilliance.
3. Are Bienne diamonds truly Swiss Made?
Bienne diamonds are grown at our facility in Bienne Switzerland. The diamonds are grown with solar energy. After the diamonds have grown we cut and polish them in Canada before returing back to our Swiss facility. If you chose to have a setting lab-grown diamonds significantly reduces the environmental impact compared to traditional mining. It’s a sustainable way to create a meaningful, lasting memory.
4. What happens if I lose my diamond?
We store extra carbon from your material, so if you ever need a replacement or want additional diamonds, we can create more for you without needing new materials.
