Alson Signature Collection | Alson Jewelers

As the saying goes, “Diamonds are a girl’s best.”  This is certainly true if you are born in the month April.  April’s birthstone is the spectacular diamond which has been revered throughout the ages.   Royalty would use diamonds to embellish their crowns, swords and jewelry. The ancient Hindus called the diamond “Vajra” meaning lightening, because of the sparks of light thrown off by this gem as well as for its strength. During the middle ages, diamonds were thought to heal illnesses, but only if the ailing person took the diamond into their bed to warm it up first.

Over the centuries, diamonds have become symbolic of everlasting love.  This symbolism comes from the Greeks who believed that the fire in diamonds reflect the flame of everlasting love. So if you have an April birthday or you just have an everlasting love for diamonds, read on for our favorite looks in April’s birthstone.
