Peridot jewelry brings the bright yellow-green of late summer into your collection. This August birthstone forms deep in the Earth's mantle and sometimes arrives via meteorites—one of only two gems with extraterrestrial origins. Our 84 peridot pieces range from $471 to $10073, each set in .925 sterling silver with natural stones. Peridot rates 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, making it suitable for rings, pendants, and earrings worn with reasonable care. Free US shipping on every order.

Peridot scores 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs hardness scale. This makes it suitable for earrings, pendants, and rings worn with care. Remove peridot jewelry during rough work or exercise to prevent scratches and chips.
Major sources include Arizona's San Carlos Reservation, Pakistan, Myanmar, and China. Some rare peridot crystals have been found in pallasite meteorites, making it one of few gems with both terrestrial and extraterrestrial origins.
Sterling silver's cool white tone creates contrast with peridot's yellow-green hue, allowing the stone's natural color to appear more saturated. Gold can blend with peridot's warm undertones, reducing visual impact.
