Bob loved his dog Sparky. Sparky was his constant companion, and Bob spent more time with Sparky than he did the rest of his family. When Sparky suddenly died in a freak rooftop Frisbee accident Bob was determined that his relationship with Sparky would not come to an end. Thanks to a unique Japanese company Bob's relationship with Sparky did continue, and in a legal manner: Bob now wears Sparky as a ring, and yes, Sparky does sparkle.
If you really love your pet, and your pet dies, then the Japanese Company Lidy may be of interest to you. They have created a method in which the carbonized remains of your beloved pet can be made into a diamond, more or less. Once the pet diamond process is complete, the stone is placed into a standard jewelry setting, making a ring to immortalize the lost pet. Be warned, the love for your pet may not compensate you enough for the cost of the jewelry – the price runs from $2,850 to $19,000. However, I am sure that there are many who would jump at such a wearable tribute at any price.
Now, I have to ask this question – Do you think that such a process would be practical or moral for the dearly departed of the two legged kind? I personally see no problem with it, the stone is quite sanitary thanks to the process and it will certainly last much longer than the wearer will. Imagine, having a diamond made of a dear loved one – in many ways it beats an urn of ashes on the mantle, you can carry it with you much easier, and there is little danger of knocking it over and making a mess.
