Peridot Birthstones

Johnsons continue to explore birthstones, for the month of August this is Peridot, one of the few gemstones to only occur in a single colour. Its trademark lime green stands out in any piece and has been considered to bestow fortuity and success upon the wearer.

Peridot’s various supposed properties have deemed it the perfect gift for oneself or loved ones for thousands of years; with a famous example being Napoleon’s gift to Josephine symbolising his undying admiration and affection. The stone was believed to conduct the energies of the sun; this energy could grant fame and dignity on the wearer or love and truth if gifted to a partner. Found in volcanoes and even in meteorites, Peridot is most unironically, out of this world.
