Every month has its birthstone, and April's is the diamond, the most famous gem of all. If you're shopping for an April birthday, that makes the choice easy.
What the diamond birthstone symbolises
Diamonds have long been associated with strength, clarity and enduring love. The word "diamond" comes from the Greek *adamas*, meaning unbreakable, a fitting meaning for a birthday gift.
Gift ideas for April birthdays
- A birthstone pendant: a single round or bezel-set diamond on a fine chain.
- Birthstone studs: everyday earrings she'll always associate with you.
- A milestone ring: for a 18th, 21st, 30th or 50th birthday, an eternity or half-eternity band.
- A charm or initial pendant set with a small diamond.
- For him: a diamond band or cufflinks.
Why lab-grown is perfect for birthday gifts
Lab-grown diamonds are real diamonds at a much lower price, so you can give a visible stone rather than a tiny chip. They're equally durable for everyday wear.
