Happy Birthday, April

Ladies lucky enough to be born in the fourth month of the year have the most prized gemstone of all as their birthstone–the diamond truly is a girl’s best friend!

This beautiful gemstone is also the most durable; made of carbon, the diamond is 58 times harder than anything found in nature, and can only be cut by another diamond. While colorless diamonds are the most common, the April birthstone can actually be found in a variety of colors, including yellow, pink, blue, brown and green.

Throughout history, the diamond has been synonymous with eternal love and prosperity and because it is the toughest of all gemstones, the diamond is also symbolic of endurance and commitment.

Here are a few unique diamond pieces from our fabulous collection that are destined to brighten your day. Whether you have a sparkly surprise in mind for a loved one, or a well-deserved gift for yourself, you will find that diamond dreams were made at Braunschweiger Jewelers.
