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:

We combine your loved one’s carbon, a microscopic Diamond seed, and generic carbon into a growth cell.

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"
