An Enduring Legacy: The History of April’s Diamond
“The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” – William Faulkner
For centuries, exquisite diamonds have captured our imagination with their enduring brilliance and strength.
The word “diamond” originates from the ancient Greek word “adamas,” meaning invincible or unbreakable. It’s an ode to a gemstone celebrated for its resilience through the ages.
Diamonds were first mined in India over 2,500 years ago. Many ancient civilizations regarded them as magical stones that could ward off evil and bring strength, courage and prosperity.
Ancient Greeks believed they were splinters of fallen stars, while Romans viewed them as tears cried by the gods. Across cultures, diamonds came to embody eternal love, their crystalline sparkle evoking life’s precious joys.
Over time, diamonds became associated with unity and fidelity. In 1477, Archduke Maximillian of Austria proposed to Mary of Burgundy with a diamond ring – sparking a tradition that continues to this day.
By the Georgian era of the early 1700s, diamond jewelry was in high demand. The sentimental language of flowers and birthstones also gained popularity, with diamonds designated as April’s birthstone.
Now, exchanging April birthstone jewelry has become a way to honor long-held bonds. Each timeless piece celebrates life’s shining moments and connections that transcend time.

Caring Through the Ages: Tips for Maintaining your April Birthstone Jewelry
“Take care of all your memories. For you cannot relive them.” – Bob Dylan
To retain their radiant sparkle, diamond jewelry requires special care. Here are our top tips for keeping your April birthstones pristine:
- Clean regularly – Use a soft toothbrush with mild soap and lukewarm water to gently scrub away dirt and oils. Rinse and pat dry with a lint-free cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach, alcohol or ammonia.
- Store properly – Keep pieces in separate soft cloth pouches to avoid scratching. Avoid direct sunlight and humidity which can dull stones.
- Inspect settings – Make sure prongs and claws are secure so stones don’t loosen over time. Have jewelry checked annually and reset as needed.
- Remove during activities – Take rings and bracelets off when doing household chores, sports or sleep to prevent damage. Even diamonds can break!
- Visit your jeweler – Have an expert inspect and clean your diamonds every six months to a year. Ultrasonic and steam cleaning can revive their sparkling brilliance.
With proper care, your cherished diamonds can dazzle through decades – even generations – becoming family heirlooms to pass down or have reimagined into modern classics.
