The Beethoven Diamond

I`ve heard of LifeGem, the company that creates diamonds using extracted carbon from human or pet remains before but now they have done something different than turning a loved one into a gem, now you can buy a famous person`s gem. Composer Ludwig van Beethoven is immortalized in a sparkling blue stone created from using tiny amounts of carbon in strands of his hair. The hair came from a collection of famous hair at the University Archives in Connecticut. The gem represents the first time a historical figure has been turned into a diamond. The .56 carat rock will be auctioned off on eBay and is hoped to sell for up to $1 million. The proceeds will be donated to various children`s charities around the world.
