Peridot Necklaces
Peridot Gemstone Necklaces
The peridot gemstone is unique in a few ways, but probably the one distinct difference is that it's only one of two gems (the other is a diamond) that's not formed in the Earth's crust. A volcanic gem, peridot starts as olivine crystals in the Earth's mantle, and then they are rattled to the surface during tectonic activity—usually through a volcano. As a volcano erupts, the crystals explode from the lava and rain to the ground as tiny peridot gemstones.
Luckily there are easier ways to obtain high-quality peridot necklaces than waiting for a volcano to explore. Try this for a timeless treasure that's handcrafted to perfection: Drape your neck with pear-shaped peridot and round brilliant-cut diamond necklace set in white gold. The perfect piece for any outfit!
Bold and bright, torsade necklaces are a colorful summer statement that you can use to dress up your beachwear. The chunky twist of cultured freshwater green pearl and free-form peridot chips adds a touch of nature-inspired beauty to your look. Try the verdant green sparkle of a peridot tennis necklace in polished 18kt yellow gold over sterling silver for a more classic style.
Peridot is the birthstone for August! Surprise your special someone with an elegant round peridot solitaire necklace suspended from a white gold bead chain.
