Peridot

Peridot, an olive green colour gem, is the birthstone of August month and the zodiac stone for the constellation libra. It is one of the few gemstones that are found only in one colour, that is olive green and the darker the colour the more precious is the stone considered.

The name Peridot is derived from the Arabic word ‘faridat’ which means gem, or it may also have been derived from the French word ‘peritot’ which means unclear due to the cloudy nature of large stones. Use of Peridot can be traced back to the Second BC and is even mistaken for an emerald. The Egyptians bestowed upon Peridot the name of the ’gem of the sun’ as it is acknowledged for its luminance properties and is believed to shield the wearer from the terrors of the dark. It forms during volcanic eruptions and the color ranges from yellowish green to dark lime green.

In earlier times Peridot was found in the Red Sea Island of St. Johns and it still produces smaller quantities of this precious stone. The San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation in Arizona, is a significant source of Peridot and is mined by the native Americans. Peridot can also be obtained from a number of locations in New Mexico. Pakistan and China also bring in huge quantities of this valuable stone, but the Pakistan ones are more popular.

Peridot has often been confused with other gemstones particularly emerald due to the resemblance in colour. Although it is different in color many jewelers consider it as the ‘evening emerald’. It is among the most exclusive and rare gemstones and is an excellent choice for men’s jewellery. Peridot is also considered the anniversary stone for sixteen years of marriage.
