TWO DESIGNS, TWO METALS
Before you order: this service requires hair only, approximately 10g for human hair or 20g for pet fur. Silmaril manages your order from New Zealand, while HPHT diamond growth is completed by specialist lab partners in China. GIA / IGI certification is optional and priced separately. Because every piece is custom-made, please enquire first if you are unsure about the sample amount, timing, certification, lab logistics, or refund point.

What's Included in the Price

NO SURPRISES
Diamond creation Included
The complete hair-to-diamond process — carbon extraction, 99.95%+ purification, graphitization, 35–50 day HPHT growth, cutting and grading.
Jewellery setting Included
The finished 0.57ct diamond is cut, polished, and set into your chosen design in 18K white or yellow gold. No additional setting fee.
18K gold advantage Included
18K gold contains 75% pure gold. Common 14K gold contains about 58.5%, so an 18K setting contains about 28.2% more pure gold than a same-weight 14K setting before craftsmanship and finishing are considered.
Sample guidance Included
Silmaril provides sample preparation guidance before you send your hair sample.
NZ delivery Included
The finished jewellery is returned to you by insured courier to any address in New Zealand. No shipping charge regardless of your location.
Return of unused hair Included
Any hair remaining after the carbon purification stage is carefully packaged and returned to you alongside the finished diamond.
GIA / IGI certification Optional extra
Gemological certification by GIA or IGI is available on request at an additional cost. Contact us for current certification pricing — it can be arranged before or after your order.

Pricing Questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED

How much does a memorial diamond cost in New Zealand?

Silmaril offers two all-inclusive designs: The Guardian at NZ$3,280 (0.57ct in 18K white gold) and The Warmth at NZ$2,650 (0.57ct in 18K yellow gold). Both prices include the diamond, jewellery setting, and insured delivery.

What is included in the price?

Everything you need: the full hair-to-diamond creation process, 0.57ct HPHT lab-grown diamond, 18K gold jewellery setting, insured courier return delivery, and return of any unused hair. The only optional addition is GIA or IGI gemological certification.

Why is 18K gold more valuable than 14K gold?

18K gold contains 75% pure gold, while 14K gold contains about 58.5%. That means a same-weight 18K setting contains approximately 28.2% more pure gold than 14K. Our settings use 18K white gold or 18K yellow gold, not 14K.

Are there any hidden fees?

No. The listed price is fully all-inclusive for NZ customers. The sole optional extra is GIA or IGI certification, which is available on request. Contact us for current certification pricing.

Is the price the same for human hair and pet hair?

Yes. There is no difference in price between human and pet hair orders. The Guardian is NZ$3,280 and The Warmth is NZ$2,650 for any customer, human or pet.

Are prices in NZD?

All prices are in New Zealand dollars.

Does the price include delivery?

Yes. The finished jewellery is returned by insured courier at no additional charge, anywhere in New Zealand.

Is a deposit required?

Full payment is made at the time of ordering via Stripe. If you have specific questions about payment arrangements, email [email protected] before placing your order.

How much does GIA or IGI certification cost?

Certification pricing varies with laboratory fees and the specific certificate requested. Contact us for current pricing. Certification can be arranged at any point — before or after your order is placed.

Why is Silmaril often more accessible than overseas providers?

Silmaril is a New Zealand service with simple, all-inclusive NZ pricing. You should compare current like-for-like offers carefully, because overseas pricing can vary by currency, setting, shipping, certification, and import costs.

How do I pay?

Securely via Stripe using any major credit or debit card. You can also email us with questions before paying — there is no pressure or obligation to commit before you are ready.
