Diamond is the birthstone of April & anniversary gemstone for the 10th and 60th years of marriage.

Diamond was discovered in 500 B.C. in India. The name "diamond" comes from the Greek word "adamas" which means unconquerable-suggesting the eternity of love. Since ancient Greece diamonds have been the traditional symbol of love. The ancients believed they were hardened dew drops, splinters from the stars or crystallised lightening.

The diamond is the hardest substance known to man and is a crystallised carbon which has unique powers of light reflection. Because it is composed of a single element - a diamond is the purest of all gemstones. Some other occasional colours are, blue, yellow, amber, red, green, pink, but generally diamond is a colourless stone.
