What is the April Birthstone Meaning?
The April birthstone is diamond, formed over billions of years under extraordinary heat and pressure deep within the Earth. The hardest natural material known to exist, it sits well with its meaning: diamond has always been a stone of endurance, of things built to last.
Ancient Hindus believed diamonds could protect against evil and bring good fortune. The stones were also thought to hold healing powers. Some ancient civilisations believed lightning bolts formed them; others that they were the tears of gods. For a stone that arrives from the depths of the Earth after billions of years, it is perhaps no surprise that people looked at it and reached for something divine to explain it.
Legend also has it that Cupid’s arrow was tipped with a diamond. As the ultimate symbol of love, diamond inspired jewellery could be the finest gift for your loved ones.
What is the April Birthstone Colour?
The April birthstone colour is clear, a luminous, colourless brilliance that catches and returns light more completely than almost any other stone. It is a colour, if you can call it that, of pure clarity, of transparency, intention and nothing held back. Our clear crystal and crystal quartz capture that same quality: the same glassy sparkle, the same play of light, the same feeling of something bright and weightless set against silver or gold.
