*APRIL BIRTHSTONE – DIAMOND*
“She who from April dates her years,
Diamonds shall wear,
Lest bitter tears
For vain repentance flow.”
The diamond is harder than any other substance on earth and it has become a symbol of enduring love.
One of the most popular gems throughout history, diamonds are the birthstone for this month, and these stones are linked to love, eternity and strength. This has contributed towards diamonds being the most popular gems of all time when it comes to romance, such as engagement rings and wedding bands. Diamonds are very strong and hardwearing, making them the perfect birthstone to wear on a daily basis.
Diamonds have been revered throughout history, used to embellish crowns, swords and emblems as well as jewellery. They were also believed to have certain medicinal properties: during the middle ages, these gemstones were thought to heal illness, but only if the ailing person took the diamond into bed to warm it up first!
