How are Aether Diamonds created?
Aether diamonds, like other lab grown diamonds, are identical to natural diamonds in every way, but they are created in a controlled environment using cutting-edge technology rather than deep below the earth's surface. Aether takes sustainability a step further with a patented process to transform air pollution into diamonds.
Learn more about the process of creating Aether DiamondsStep One: Carbon Capture
A thermochemical process is used to capture CO2, which is then purified and pumped into high-pressure cylinders for storage.
Step Two: Chemical Conversion
Captured CO2 is combined with green hydrogen to produce high-purity Atmospheric MethaneTM.
Step Three: Rough Diamond Growth
Atmospheric MethaneTM is pumped into specialized CVD growing chambers, where the diamond start to take shape, one ambitious atom at a time.
Step Four: Final Polishing
Once the diamond material has been grown, it is rough cut into small cubes. Advanced software maps the material and produces a cutting plan. From there, the stones are cut and polished using traditional methods.
What is the impact of an Aether diamond?
Aether is not just a diamond, it is crafting a better tomorrow. The diamonds are more than just symbols of love and commitment - they are active participants in the healing of our planet. To become a caretaker of the future is to embrace environmental stewardship through all facets of life. Aether diamonds offer unparalleled traceability, from the point of initial carbon capture all the way through to final delivery. We meticulously track each carbon atom's journey, showcasing our commitment to transparency. It's a journey of transformation, a path we proudly share with our customers, ensuring that each Aether diamond you hold is not just a stone, but a milestone in our collective journey towards a more sustainable and transparent world.

100% Renewable Power
Our diamonds are produced with 100% renewable power. We take power consumption and access to clean energy very seriously. That is why we have partnered with ClearLoop to fund the development of solar farms in parts of the US where the greatest economic and environmental benefits can be achieved.
No Fossil Fuels
Regular lab-grown diamonds are made from fossil carbon sources like methane gas and graphite, both of which come from the ground. The industry has simply traded mining for a different type of extractive process. Aether diamonds are made from 100% captured carbon, making them a lasting climate solution.
Carbon Negative
Combining direct air capture technology with diamond synthesis and powering the entire process with renewable energy allows us to go beyond carbon neutral and achieve a negative carbon footprint. That means for every diamond produced, there's a measurable reduction in atmospheric carbon.
Certified B Corp
As a certified B Corp, we are counted among businesses that are leading a global movement for an inclusive, equitable and regenerative economy. Aether's impact is more than just environmental. It's a call to action for a brighter, cleaner, and more sustainable future.
