April’s birthstone is the beautiful diamond as well as the anniversary gemstone for the 10th and 60th wedding anniversaries. The stone’s name originates from the Greek word adamas, which means unconquerable. When diamonds are gifted it is a symbol of eternal love. The Greeks not only used the diamond to signify their love, but the stone’s powers are said to include heal properties as well.

While the diamond is the purest of all the gemstones and is generally colorless, the color can vary from non-colored to variations of yellow, pink, blue, and green.
