With the birthstone of the Diamond, those with birthdays in April are truly lucky. Found in almost every color of the rainbow, but most spectacular when clear, this gemstone has been the most popular choice for decades.
Diamond is derived from the Greek "adamas", meaning unbreakable or indomitable. Diamonds are believed to render all poisons harmless & to stop madness, night spirits, and bad dreams.
When shopping for a diamond it is advisable to learn about the 4 C's - Cut, Color, Clarity, & Carat (weight), to make an informed purchase decision.
Please be watchful of jeweller's selling Alaska diamond, Alencon diamond, Arkansas diamond, Bohemian diamond, Bristol diamond, Cornish diamond, Irish diamond, Isle of Wight diamond, Marmora diamond, Mexican diamond and Vallum diamond, which are really quartz crystal and NOT real diamond. Likewise Ceylon diamond and mature diamond are colorless zircon, Jourado diamond is an imitation stone, Killiecrankie diamond and Saxony diamond are really colorless topaz, Radium diamond is really smoky quartz, Alaska black diamond is really hematite, Nevada diamond and Nevada black diamond are really obsidian.
Diamonds are found in Australia, Ghana, Zaire, the former USSR, the USA and Brazil.
