Peridot

    Filter
      PERIDOT has been mined as a gemstone for over  4000 years. This gem is available in just one color. Its greens range from bottle green to an olive green. Peridot often has  inclusions which can be caused by the presence  of small particles of Silica; occasionally you  will  find  needle-like  inclusions  which  are  commonly referred to as Ludwig needles. It comes from Arizona, China, Africa and Pakistan. Given its resemblance to the color of money, peridot has often been associated with prosperity and good fortune. Ancient Egyptians called the peridot the “gem of the Sun,” as they believed it protected those who wore it from the terrors of the night. In addition to being the birthstone for August, it is associated  with  the  star  sign  of  Capricorn  and  used  to  celebrate the 16th wedding anniversary.
