This April birthstone necklace features a clear cubic zirconia set in an infinity pendant shape — April's birthstone is diamond, represented here by a brilliant-cut CZ that captures the same colorless sparkle. 925 sterling silver, left unplated — there's no gold layer here, just the polished silver alloy itself. One of our clearest-looking pendants, because a colorless stone at this quality level is genuinely hard to distinguish from diamond at this scale. Whether you're searching for a birthstone necklace for April or a diamond CZ necklace, this piece covers both.
Why CZ Works Especially Well for April Birthstone
April's birthstone is diamond — the hardest, most brilliant natural stone, and also the most expensive. CZ (cubic zirconia) is a well-established diamond simulant with similar refractive index and dispersion. At pendant scale (under 1 carat equivalent), the visual difference is negligible without magnification.
The infinity setting adds meaning beyond the birthstone itself. An infinity symbol reads as 'forever' — love, connection, lasting bond. Combining it with April's diamond birthstone creates a piece with layered symbolism that works as both a birthday gift and a sentimental jewelry choice.

How to Style an April Birthstone Necklace
Clear stones are the most versatile to style. A diamond CZ necklace pairs with literally everything — it doesn't clash with outfit colors the way colored gemstone pieces can. Wear it with bright colors, prints, or patterns without worrying about coordination.
Layer it with other CZ or silver-tone pieces for a tonal stack, or wear it solo — the colorless sparkle holds its own without additional support.
This necklace reads elevated at the price point because of the infinity setting detail and the CZ quality. A good choice when you want to give something that looks more expensive than it is.
How to Care for Your April
Left unplated, this piece has no surface layer to wear through — what it can do is dull with air exposure over time, the way all sterling silver does. Remove it before the gym, pool, or shower; sweat and chlorine are the main causes of that dulling.
Store it flat in a dry pouch or the original box. When cleaning, use a soft dry cloth — no abrasives, no ultrasonic cleaners, no chemical dips.
If you notice dullness, a jewelry polishing cloth brings the shine back quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this necklace hypoallergenic?
Yes. The piece is 925 sterling silver end to end, with no plating layer to react — nickel-free and suited to sensitive skin.
Is this solid gold or gold plated?
Neither — it's polished 925 sterling silver, left unplated. There's no gold layer on this piece; the silver tone in every photo is the metal itself.
Will it tarnish?
Sterling silver can dull with air exposure over time, the way all silver does. There's no plating to protect it, but there's also none to wear through — a soft polishing cloth brings the shine back in a couple of minutes.
Can I wear this in the shower or while swimming?
We'd remove it first. Chlorine and prolonged water exposure dull polished silver faster than daily wear does — a quick splash is fine if you dry it right after.
Is the April birthstone diamond or CZ?
April's traditional birthstone is diamond. This necklace uses cubic zirconia (CZ) — a lab-created diamond simulant with similar brilliance and colorlessness. CZ is the standard alternative in affordable birthstone jewelry and holds up well to daily wear.
What does the infinity symbol mean on a birthstone necklace?
The infinity symbol (∞) represents endlessness — usually interpreted as eternal love, connection, or friendship. Combined with a birthstone, it personalizes the 'forever' symbolism to a specific person. It's one of the more popular settings for gift jewelry because the meaning is legible without explanation.
Is this a good April birthstone necklace for mom?
Yes. The CZ + infinity combination makes it a strong sentimental gift — the clear stone represents April, and the infinity symbol adds the 'forever' layer that resonates with parent-child gifting. It comes in a gift-ready box.
