16th Anniversary Rings in Sterling Silver  

Peridot and Natural Stone Rings for 16 Years Together

Peridot forms deep in the Earth's mantle and reaches the surface through volcanic activity. Ancient Egyptians called it the gem of the sun, mining it on the Red Sea island of Zabargad for over 3,500 years. The stone's characteristic green comes from iron content in its crystal structure, not from trace elements like most colored gems. This makes peridot one of few gemstones that occurs in only one color, though shades range from yellow-green to deep olive. Our sterling silver settings use 92.5% pure silver alloyed with copper for strength. This combination holds stones secure while maintaining the bright white finish that complements peridot's warm green tones. Ring styles include solitaires, multi-stone designs, and settings paired with complementary gems like white topaz or citrine. SilverRush Style has shipped natural stone jewelry from the US since 2005. Browse the full collection to find a 16th anniversary ring that fits her style and your budget.
