Natural diamonds

April birthstone demand for natural diamonds is a small but reliable seasonal bump

As April's birthstone, natural diamonds see a modest but consistent uptick in smaller, gift-oriented purchases each spring, distinct from the bigger festive and proposal seasons.

As April's birthstone, natural diamonds see a modest but consistent uptick in smaller, gift-oriented purchases each spring, distinct from the bigger festive and proposal seasons.

  • The bump is concentrated in pendants, small stud earrings and other everyday jewellery rather than engagement or bridal pieces.
  • Average purchase size is smaller than the festive or proposal peaks, but the pattern repeats reliably enough each year to plan around.
  • Lab-grown stones are more common in this category than in bridal purchases, reflecting the more price-sensitive, gift-driven nature of the buying.
