Eterneva advertises pet memorial diamonds starting at $3,499. This is a review of public product information checked on September 24, 2026. We have not purchased a diamond, visited the laboratory, or independently tested the company's carbon-tracking claims. Eterneva pet memorials
Our assessment: consider this option if you specifically want a diamond memorial and are comfortable with a substantial purchase and a long production period. First obtain a written specification, complete price, and terms for changes or cancellation. A memorial does not need to be expensive to be meaningful.

The first night
The rule: nothing has to be decided tonight, except one thing.
Read tonight's cardClose the card
If they are still at home with you
The one thing to decide tonight is where they rest until morning. That is all.
- Lay them on a towel or a blanket in the coolest room you have: a laundry room, a garage, a tiled floor. Not the car.
- If you can, settle them on their side with the legs gently tucked, the way they slept. Do this soon rather than later. Within a few hours the body stiffens, and it becomes harder to move them with care.
- A little fluid can release. One towel underneath and one folded over is enough. This is normal, and it is not a sign that anything was done wrong.
- In a cool room they can stay overnight and through tomorrow. If it is warm where you are, wrap them in the blanket and then a large bag, and use the coolest space you have.
- Collar on or collar off. Either is fine. Many people take it off tonight and are glad later that they did.
If they died at the vet's
Then the where is already handled, and there is nothing you have to do tonight. The clinic will keep them safely until you have chosen what happens next. You can call in the morning. Card 4 covers what you can still ask the clinic for: time with them, a paw print, the collar back.
What you do not have to do tonight
- Choose a crematory. Tomorrow is fine. Almost every crematory collects within a day, and the person who answers the phone has heard every version of this call. Card 3 has the eight questions to ask.
- Decide private or communal. Card 2, when you are ready.
- Tell everyone. Tell the people in the house. Everyone else can wait until tomorrow, or next week.
- Move anything. The bowl, the bed, the leash by the door: leave them exactly where they are. Card 7 is for when you want it, and there is no deadline.
What to say in the house tonight
To a child: "[Name] died today. Her body stopped working and the vet could not fix it. It was not anyone's fault. We are going to be sad for a while, and that is okay." Then stop talking and let them ask. Card 6 has more, by age.
To each other: nothing clever. "I am so sad" is a complete sentence.
One small thing, if you want one
Sit with them for a few minutes. Tell them one thing you will miss. Turn off the light.
That is a goodbye, and it counts. A fuller one can come later, and card 16 will help. Tonight, this is enough.
If tonight feels like more than you can carry, card 25 has people who answer the phone at this hour.

Some sections of the company's pages show different older offers or terms. The pet FAQ says color can affect price, while the pricing FAQ describes equal prices across colors. Ask Eterneva to resolve any discrepancy for the exact stone you want; do not assume one advertised figure applies to every option. Pet FAQ, pricing page
What should the written quote cover?
Ask for these items before committing:
- Diamond weight, shape, color, and the acceptable finished specification.
- Whether the amount includes a setting, metal, engraving, and any accompanying stones.
- Shipping both ways, taxes, and any separate fees.
- Which grading report you receive, who issues it, and whether an independent laboratory report costs extra.
- Payment stages, cancellation terms, and the remedy if the agreed result cannot be produced.
Do not calculate an affordable monthly payment by dividing the stone price by twelve. Eterneva advertises payment options, but the actual APR, duration, eligibility, and total payable need to be checked with the financing provider. Payment information
Timeline and amount of ashes
The company gives a typical 8–11 months from receipt of ashes or hair, rather than from the day you start researching. Request an expected completion date and ask how setting or other customization affects it. Published timeline
Its pet page requests approximately half a cup of ashes or one cup of fur or hair. If you have less, ask before mailing anything. You do not need to send all the remains; follow the instructions in your own kit. Material requirements
What we can and cannot verify
Eterneva describes extraction, growth, cutting, and customization on its process page. Its pet page describes individual tracking and production updates. These are company statements, not findings from our own facility audit.
A grading report and a chain-of-custody record answer different questions. Request both the stone's specifications and the records showing how your submitted material is handled. Ask which production stages occur at which facilities, what material is added, and what happens to unused ashes and stored carbon. Its general FAQ describes a diamond seed and additional generic carbon during growth; ask what that means for your order.
We have not conducted a representative customer-review study, so we do not assign a star score or claim that every buyer has a particular experience. When reading independent reviews, look for completed orders, dates, complaint resolution, and the configuration purchased.
Is it a good fit for your family?
The strongest reason to choose a memorial diamond is that you want this particular form of remembrance. The practical drawbacks are the price, production wait, and need to understand the terms before sending irreplaceable material.
For a different approach, consider an urn, an ashes-holding pendant, a photograph, or a free online memorial. Our cremation jewelry guide and memorial planning article explain other formats. Compare current quotes for any purchased option.
