You can made lab diamonds from blood. Diamonds are just carbon and almost everything thing has carbon. You can right now get your dead relatives' ashes made into a diamond. It would probably take a while to be able safely get enough of your own blood to make a diamond though. But that would make it more romantic, right?
I'm not sure about the amount of blood you'd really need though since I think all of these "ashes to diamonds" places add their own carbon, too. From one such website:
TBH I was hoping for something less clear diamond and more garnet/ruby looking.
The man-made rubies you can get off AliExpress are pretty nice, but they don't quite scream "deranged blood ritual"
