The birthstone for August – Peridot. In ancient times it was believed that Peridot was a gift from Mother Nature to celebrate the annual creation of a new world. Peridot presents the wearer with magical powers and healing properties to protect against nightmares when given as a gift. It is also said to instill power and influence. Today, most Peridot comes from Arizona, but it can also be found in China, Myanmar, and Pakistan. Peridot is available in several colors ranging from yellowish green to brown, but the bright lime and olive greens are the most desired. If you prefer citrus or earth tones, you’ll find a place for Peridot in your jewellery collection.
