14 Unique Diamonds Perfect For April Birthdays

A new birthstone is here to rule

April is finally here, which means it’s time to put down those aquamarines. For those lucky enough to be born in the month of April, you’re able to call the ever-precious diamond your birthstone.  

While we likely think of diamonds as the ultimate gift for those we love, there’s actually a bit of mythology behind them. It’s believed that the wearer of a diamond will be blessed with better relationships and increased inner strength. In fact, the word diamond comes from the Greek adamas, meaning “invincible.”

But here at NYLON, we’re not into just any old diamonds. We rounded up 14 of the coolest, most unique pieces of diamond jewelry of the season—from septum cuffs to statement chokers—fit to be gifted to the badass Aries and Taurus ladies in your life (ahem, or yourself). I mean, they are a girl’s best friend and all.
