Did you ever know that diamond can also be extracted literally from your deceased pet’s ashes or a lock of its hair? This is freaky and sounds very unbelievable. However, a company called DNA2Diamonds comes up with a weird way of creating this sparkling gem out of your deceased pet. This requires a long process though.

All you need to do is to submit a DNA sample of your deceased pet to the company. They will then go through a series of procedures such as; extracting carbon from the sample, adding the carbon to a real diamond seed, which is then placed to an incubator so that it grows. After going through all the necessary procedures, the stone is finally cut and is closely examined by the Gemological Institute of America before it is packaged and sent to you.

What’s even more surprising is that you can turn the remains of your pet into a red, yellow-green or cognac diamond. You can also have the stone set in a ring, bracelet, earring or pendant and choose the shape and carat size according to your choice. The whole thing still sounds weird and impossible. However, even if it’s true, one thing that is still skeptical is the quality of the diamond.

Expect Romain Jerome to come up with the most exotic designs and concepts for the conventional accessory we call the watch. Well, that’s no exaggeration for we do know that the luxury brand has given us time pieces made from the wreckage of the Titanic. Boy, didn’t they just blow our minds away! And now, they are going a step further with the Titanic-DNA collection.

A high-end skeleton timepiece, this new watch is really referred to as the rusted steel T-oxy III Skeleton Chronograph Tourbillon. And it enjoys a bold and powerful design. For starters, the diameter is from 50mm to 53 mm. The screw-in crown equips the watch with interchangeable horns along with a push button, which is a pattern running through all the Titanic-DNA timepieces.

The skeleton dial is held together by a whole range of materials like brass, black steel and pink gold 5N, whilst velvet and satin have been mixed to create those unmatchable Roman numeral XII. The chronometry design has been highlighted by pink gold 5N. Only nine examples of the timepiece are up for sale. Hurry!

Until now, DNA 11 had been selling big portraits but they have come with a special smaller version to suit the customer’s pockets and gain mileage in the festive season. So, as little as $169 will help you get that cool DNA portrait (20 cm x 25 cm) for your near and dear one. In fact, it makes a cool corporate gift too.
