April Birthstones

The April birthstone is the much-coveted diamond. While the diamond is known for its beauty and allure, it is also an incredibly tough stone. Formed 100 miles under the earth’s surface, this is the hardest gemstone and can only be cut by itself. In fact, it is 58 times harder than anything else in nature.

Diamond Jewellery – Romantic and Luxurious

The diamond is known for its romantic associations as it is so often used in engagement rings, but that is not all that the diamond is perfect for.

As the April birthstone, the diamond is symbolic of everlasting love, but has also been historically considered to hold the power of healing. Perhaps it was the almost mystical element of this gem that led ancient cultures to hold the diamond in such high regard?

While the most recognisable diamond is the white diamond, there are other, naturally-forming diamond colours that can be found, such as yellow, pink and blue diamonds which tend to be rarer and more valuable than white diamonds when featuring intense colours.

As diamonds are made of carbon alone, there is an element of purity to the diamond that has ensured its synonymity with luxury, elegance and beauty. The sparkle of this stone is incomparable, so it is perfect for allowing the wearer to add a touch of glamour.
