Birthstone of the Month

Diamond, April's birthstone, is perhaps the most coveted of all gemstones because it symbolizes love and commitment. It is also best known as the token for everlasting affection. One of the hardest of all gemstones, it is believed to bring the wearer better relationships, inner strength, courage, wealth, happiness, and protection. Diamond comes from the Greek word "adamas" or "invincible" meaning that it is known for it's extreme hardness, outstanding brilliance, and clarity. Although the traditional color is white or colorless, diamonds can also occur in the rare and valuable colors of yellow, blue, green, red, and pink. Coming from the producing counties of South Africa, Botswana, Zaire, and Nanibia, diamond is known for it's rich past history, it's importance in the present, and the continued success in the future!
