Fresh, luminous, and unmistakably vibrant—peridot carries a green unlike any other, glowing with a warmth that feels almost lit from within. Once known as the “evening emerald,” it has been treasured since ancient Egypt, where its colour was said to remain radiant even in low light.
Formed deep within the Earth’s mantle and brought to the surface through volcanic activity, peridot holds a rare origin shared by only a few gemstones. This unique beginning gives it a sense of energy and vitality, long associated with compassion, renewal, and quiet prosperity.
With a hardness of 6.5–7 on the Mohs scale, peridot is suited for regular wear with a touch of care. Traditionally gifted for 1st and 16th anniversaries, it reflects growth, light, and the beauty of something just beginning.
