August's Birthstone is Peridot
Peridot is a sparkling lime green gemstone created deep in the Earth’s mantle and brought to the surface by volcanic activity. Hawaiians consider peridot to be the Goddess Pele’s tears, while Egyptians named peridot “Gem of the Sun” and believe it to have healing properties and offer protection from nightmares.
Sometimes called Evening Emerald, peridot looks great day or night and always keeps its vibrant color. Peridot is one of the few gems that comes in one color, however its bright green shade can vary from yellow-green to olive green.
Wear peridot to celebrate your August birthday, a loved one’s birthday, or for your 16th wedding anniversary. Peridot helps to alleviate anxiety and resentment while bringing harmony and peace to your relationships.
We love how versatile and inherently meaningful birthstone jewelry is. From solitaire stacking rings to loose charms beautifully intertwined in a statement necklace to an accent gem on Falling Letters and much more, there’s no wrong way to show your love for peridot or an important August date.
