Diamond is the birth stone for the month of April and the gemstone representing the 10th and 16th wedding anniversary. It is derived from the Greek word adamas, meaning "unconquerable", reflecting a recognition of diamond's superior hardness. Many cultures believe diamonds have been associated with the moon and the sun to resemble its colorlessness , brilliance, hardness, and value. The power of a diamond is diminished once it is bought, but preserved and enhanced when given as a gift. They are symbols of love, purity, and faith to some, and to others they symbolize ideas such as power, success, and security. Romance is the image a diamond portrays when reflected in lover's eyes.
