A taste of the stone

April Birthstone Jewellery

Nº 04·Diamond·Aries · Taurus

April's stone needs no introduction — but it rewards an honest one. Lab-grown diamonds are chemically identical to mined at a fraction of the price, and moissanite is a different stone altogether; both are legitimate, and both should be named as what they are.

FAQ

Buying April's birthstone

What makes a good April birthstone gift?▾

A diamond piece is the natural April birthday gift. Pendants and stud earrings are the safest choices — no ring-size guesswork — while a ring or bracelet makes a bigger statement. Every piece here is labelled for exactly what it is (the metal, and whether the stone is natural, lab-created or simulated), so you can match the gift to your budget honestly.

Are lab-created or simulated stones worth buying?▾

Often, yes. A lab-created stone is the same material as a natural one at a fraction of the price; a simulated stone (or CZ / moissanite) only imitates the look. Neither is "fake" when it's sold honestly — so every piece on this shelf is labelled natural, cultured, lab-created, or simulated, and none is passed off as another.

What should you look for when buying diamond?▾

Diamond — look for colourless; at Mohs 10 it stands up to everyday wear. Above all, check what the piece actually is — solid gold versus plated, natural versus lab-created — which every listing here states plainly.
