April Birthstones: Lemon & Smoky Quartz

April birthstone asks for color, not pressure. That’s why we’re ignoring the usual diamond pitch insisting those colorless crystals are April’s birthstone. We’re going with Lemon & Smoky Quartz. Lemon Quartz is said to boost concentration and clear mental clutter. Smoky Quartz is used for grounding and blocking negativity. Just what we need this spring — set in bold silver designs. More color, less pressure.
