The Claddagh Birthstone Pendant for April is another wonderful gift for an April birthday. It is a sterling silver pendant with a cubic zirconia stone. The stone and design is a bit smaller than that of the ring, however it still incorporates the essential elements of the claddagh.
The pendant will look ever feminine draped around the neck with a pretty sundress for a night out to eat dinner. The claddagh ring will pair well with most outfits and since the April birthstone is white there is not one outfit that it would clash with.
As long as April is a month synonymous with gardens, flowers and pretty outfits to wear out to eat, than it is important not to forget the April birth flower. There are actually two flowers for the month of April and the first one is the sweet pea. This flower comes in a variety of pastel colors and also in two tone varieties. The sweet pea signifies pleasure or farewell or a common adage that became associated with the flower which was “thank you for a lovely time.” The second flower for April is the daisy. The daisy means innocence, purity, beauty and cheerfulness. Richard Jameson discovered this flower in South Africa however it dates back to ancient times.
