Collection: 16th Anniversary gemstone gift - peridot

Peridot is a unique gemstone, known for its distinct olive green colour, making it one of the few gemstones to occur in only one hue. Peridots are found not only in the earth but also in meteorites and lava, offering a connection to both the cosmos and the Earth’s fiery depths. Unlike most gemstones, which form in the Earth’s crust, peridot is formed much deeper, in the Earth’s mantle, typically between 20 to 55 miles below the surface.

As the birthstone for August, peridot brings a vibrant and refreshing hue to any jewellery piece, symbolising warmth, positivity, and strength. It is also the gemstone associated with the 16th wedding anniversary, representing enduring love and commitment.

Whether you’re celebrating a 16th anniversary or an August birthday, peridot is a meaningful and eye-catching choice, offering a unique link to the Earth’s natural beauty.
