The Reason Peridot is the August Birthstone and Selected Jewelries
Why Peridot is the Birthstone of August and Great Gift Ideas
We know there are logic behind the selection of birthstones, but the true origin is obscure and difficult to ascertain. For August we researched the most creditable (and interesting) anecdote that makes the perfect sense. Read on to find out! During the month of August, we offer a 25% off on all items as summer celebration. Remember to take the opportunity adding jewelries to your collection or getting gifts to your love ones.
The Affiliation of Peridot and Hot Summer Heat
Peridot are made by volcanic basalt under extreme heat and pressure. Therefore, Peridot are symbolically hot being created from lava under high heat condition, hence the association with summer heat. A rather simple but convincing explanation.
One can also look into the zodiac. Leo’s (July 23-Aug 22) ruling planet is the all-powerful Sun. Astrology aside lion is often tie to the Sun for both represents the majestic and powerful. In many aspects too we can see the association: the lion’s mane compares with solar ray; lion’s yellow fur correlate with color of the sun… Rationally we can establish the link between extreme heat, lion, and Peridot all together as a representation of August’s summer.
Virgo (Aug 23-Sep22) shares August with Leo. The color green and brown (being an Earth tone) are known to be Virgo’s lucky color, perfectly captures by Peridot’s unique shade of olive green. Compare to the richer green of Emerald, the specific shade of green in Peridot is an acquired taste. But once you fell in love with it you can never go back! If you are a Virgo then Peridot is an especially worthwhile gemstone to consider for this very reason.
Curated Peridot Jewelry and Gift Recommendations
With its particular color, Peridot is charming in different ways. The stone can be faceted, round beaded or raw. These selected designs are especially gorgeous showcasing the beauty of Peridot.
The Symbolism of Calla Lily Perfectly Matches Peridot
Peridot is a naturally good fit to the lily flower for both contains similar symbolic meaning of growth and beauty. The LILY necklace is in a stylized form of the calla lily flower. At the center of the flower sets a faceted Peridot, and the stem accent with diamonds in a semi-halo format. A very nice yet easy to wear design.
Silver Spoon Necklace with Raw Peridot Representing Sugar Cube
Rough or raw stone means the gemstone are in its natural form, without cutting into the more conventional shape of faceted or bead. This treatment gain traction in recent years as people are starting to appreciate gemstones for its raw beauty. Not all gemstone is suitable for this cut. Rating a 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, a fair toughness makes Peridot suitable for rough cut. The LONDON necklace is miniature spoon influenced by British afternoon tea. Imagine the raw Peridot as a cube of sugar ready to be serve with milk tea. This one is mint favored.
Minimalist Necklace is a Timeless Classic
Spherical or beaded cut gemstones possess a gentle sheen. A round beaded Peridot reminds me of a watery grape. The MAIA necklace is one of our bestselling design because it shows the beauty of beaded cut gemstone in all its glory. A minimalist design really best describes the “less is more” aesthetics.
