Peridot is the traditional gemstone for the 16th wedding anniversary. This green gem symbolizes the milestone and is sometimes called the "evening emerald" due to its color.
The 16th anniversary is called a Moon Wedding in some traditions. Peridot has been found in meteorites and was once believed to have lunar origins, connecting the gem to this celestial name.
