One variation of a diamond composition includes carbon: including a first amount of carbon-13 isotopes and a second amount of carbon-12 isotopes; and sourced from a hydrocarbon mixture including hydrocarbons and formed via methanation of a carbon dioxide mixture. The carbon dioxide mixture: sourced from a sample of air including carbon dioxide and impurities; conveyed through a separation unit configured to remove impurities; including carbon dioxide and impurities; conveyed through a distillation column configured to regulate amounts of carbon-13 isotopes and carbon-12 isotopes; and exhibiting a target ratio of carbon-13 isotopes to carbon-12 isotopes at an outlet of the distillation column. The diamond composition: formed via chemical vapor deposition; and exhibiting an isotopic signature defining a final ratio of the first amount of carbon-13 isotopes to the second amount of carbon-12 isotopes within a first target range corresponding to the target ratio exhibited by the carbon dioxide mixture.

The present disclosure relates to the field of Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) diamonds and their processing after fabrication. In particular, the present disclosures provides a method for coring and slicing a CVD diamond product, wherein the CVD diamond product comprises a CVD diamond and graphitized material covering several side-faces of the diamond. The method is carried out by an apparatus that provides a laser beam coupled into a fluid jet. The method comprises, for the coring, cutting the product with the laser beam to remove the graphitized material from the side-faces of the diamond. Further, the method comprises, for the slicing, cutting off one or more slices from the diamond with the laser beam.

The invention relates to a modular element (1) for making jewelry items, trinkets and the like, having a convex outer surface (11) and a through hole (14) arranged at the top of said outer surface (11), wherein a wire, chain or support for making said jewelry item, trinket and the like, can be inserted through said through hole (14), a main axis of symmetry (X) passing through the hole (14), comprising a concave inner surface (12) intended to at least partially accommodate the outer surface (11) of a second element (1) adjacent to the first one, characterized in that said outer surface (11) can be inscribed on a rotation surface whose generatrix is an arc of a conic section and whose axis of rotation coincides with said main axis of symmetry (X).

This invention also relates to a jewelry item (100).

Emerald-cut diamond with length/width of 1.35 to 1.40; table of 55 to 60 percent; corner ratio of 13.5 to 14.5 percent; girdle thickness up to 3 percent; crown main angle of 28 to 45 degrees; first crown break angle of 2 to 6 degrees; second crown break angle of 2 to 6 degrees; pavilion main angle of 43 to 48 degrees; first pavilion break angle of 2 to 5 degrees; and second pavilion break angle of 2 to 5 degrees. Diamonds cut in accordance with these parameters may have light performance 0-grade domains on a grade map with wide crown and pavilion mains ranges. A method cuts the diamond according to the parameters, and may include selecting crown and pavilion main angles from the map, and cutting the diamond sufficiently close to the selected cutting parameters to obtain the light performance grade of 0.

What is provided are commemorative pieces of jewelry that include food, beverage, and/or botanical extracts and methods of making the same. An embodiment of a piece of jewelry comprises a mixture including one or more first layers of cured resin and an extract, wherein the mixture is inlaid in the piece of jewelry, and wherein the extract is derived from a food, an alcoholic beverage, a non-alcoholic beverage, a plant or a botanical. The piece of jewelry further comprises one or more second layers of cured resin.

Disclosed herein are coated gemstones, coatings for gemstones, methods of coating gemstones, and methods of using coatings on gemstones to avoid blemishes on gemstones. In some embodiments, diamonds are functionalized with anchor molecules that bind hydrophilic cyclodextrin molecules to confer hydrophilicity on the diamond. In some embodiments, the diamonds resist dirt and grime build-up.

A method for producing jewelry from human milk and an epoxy resin involving mixing human milk with a transparent epoxy resin, placing it in the mold and allowing it to harden, in which an epoxy resin and an amine hardener are used, wherein a quantity of cysteine and/or serine equal to at least 0.1 percent by weight of the milk is first added to human milk and the resulting mixture is introduced into the mixture of an epoxy resin with an amine hardener in an amount between 0.1 percent and 40 percent by volume of the mixture of an epoxy resin and a hardener.

Different types of gallium nitride (GaN) gemstones can be produced synthetically for crafting jewelry. With some examples, a GaN gemstone can include a crystal (such as a single crystal that is typically used in semiconductor devices or other types of electronic components, e.g., electronic components with optical properties). The crystal of the gemstone can be grown to be relatively pure and translucent GaN as well as cut and polished to have facets of a gemstone. Also, the crystal can include doped GaN—such as GaN doped with indium or aluminum. The doping of the GaN can be to an extent to produce a visibly discernable color (such a tint of blue).

Single integrated transparent gemstones and methods for constructing single integrated transparent gemstones. The single integrated transparent gemstone includes a first transparent gemstone, a copyright protected element, and a second transparent gemstone. The first transparent gemstone includes a first internal side. The copyright protected element is etched on the first internal side. The copyright protected element is owned by a third party. The second transparent gemstone includes a second internal side. The second transparent gemstone is fused together with the first transparent gemstone. The second internal side is aligned with the first internal side such that the copyright protected element does not extend beyond a perimeter of the second internal side.
