No. Maintaining your diamond's value, clarity and brilliance is our number one priority when inscribing your gemstone. The nano-photograph is safely injected just beneath the surface of your diamond without damaging the surface using our DiamondPure process. The value, brilliance and clarity of your diamond are preserved. It will be sparkling after the inscription exactly like it did when you got it. Since gemological laboratories measures diamonds clarity differently, Gemory specifies that the clarity grade is unchanged for clarity grades VS1 and below.

To prove the quality and the non-evasive nature of our process, we can use a third party gemological laboratory to measure your diamond’s brilliance and clarity before and after we inscribe it. A report showing that the brilliance is unchanged can be included if you decide to receive it.

Our technology, which is protected by a pending U.S. patent, safely inject the photograph of your choice on any facet of your diamond. Gemory's new patented technique is much safer than current laser inscription practices used by other companies. The laser technique entails, heating the diamond to a high temperature, melting it locally and removing precious material from the stone. Additionally, a laser changes the diamond’s structure into a different material, graphite (black), which allows you to see the inscription. However, overtime, the graphite disappears making the inscription very hard to see. Gemory’s technology is truly safe for your stone as we do not etch your stone and maintain its purity.

Gemory's process non-invasively injects personal photos on any facet of a diamond without the local destruction caused by the current inscribing techniques.

If you decide to remove the nano-photograph from your diamond, the clarity, brilliance and value of your diamonds are also preserved. Gemory also developed a technology to erase the nano-photograph. Unless you use our removal process, your memories will remain forever.

The nano-photograph is invisible to the naked eye. With each Gemory diamond you will receive a report with a high quality image of your nano-photograph on your diamond. Additionally, you can see the injected nano-photograph yourself with the Gemory portable viewer called GemmaView. You will receive this viewer whether you buy The Memory Diamond or the nano-photograph service only. It is also available separately. This portable viewer also allows you to verify the authenticity of your diamond anytime you desire. The nano-photograph also acts as the perfect security measure to protect your gemstone from theft. It is like having your personal fingerprint permanently embedded in the diamond.

Any gemstone or other substrate can be inscribed. However, all purchases done directly through our website are for diamonds only. If you want to place inscriptions on other substrates, please

This process maintains the original brilliance and clarity of the stone.

Our service is provided on loose diamonds (not mounted). At this point, we do not inscribe mounted diamonds. We recommend having your jeweler dismount your diamond before sending it and then remounting it when you get it back.
