April jewelry ideas
Dainty pendant necklace
A small diamond solitaire or bezel pendant on a fine chain is the most popular April birthstone gift: easy to wear, easy to size, and usually under $60 in sterling silver or gold vermeil.
Birthstone ring
At 10 on the Mohs scale, diamond is tough enough for an everyday ring.
Stacking or charm bracelet
Add a diamond charm to a bracelet, or choose a chain bracelet with tiny set stones. It's a nice way to add a stone for each new family member.
Flower + stone pieces
Many makers combine the daisy with a diamond, like an engraved daisy disc with a stone charm. These make the most personal April gift.
Buying tips
- Natural, lab-created or simulated: natural and lab-created stones are real gems. "Simulated" or "-ite" names usually mean glass or cubic zirconia.
- Metal: look for solid 14k gold, sterling silver (925) or gold vermeil. Avoid unmarked "gold-tone" pieces for daily wear.
- Care: The hardest natural material, but it can chip if hit at an angle. Clean regularly because diamonds attract grease.
- Alternatives: For a budget version, look for lab-created diamond.

Questions, answered
What jewelry has the April birthstone?
April's birthstone is diamond. Popular pieces are pendant necklaces, stud earrings, rings and charm bracelets.
Is lab-created diamond real?
Lab-created gems have the same chemistry and look as mined ones and cost less. They're a great choice for birthstone jewelry. Just make sure the listing says "lab-created" rather than "simulated," which means glass or a different stone.
What metal goes with diamond?
Yellow gold warms up diamond, while white gold, platinum and sterling silver look crisp and modern. Match the metal to the jewelry the wearer already has.
