Birthstones August Peridot and Diamond Pendant

August's birthstone Peridot is quite literally ‘out of this world’, as it has been found in meteorites that have struck the Earth. A stunning shade of lime green, and is said to instill confidence and assertion in the wearer. Ancient Hawaiian folklore suggests that Peridots are tears of the Goddess Pele, a goddess of volcanoes and fire, as Peridot is believed to be pushed to the surface deep from the earth’s crust via volcanic activity (Diamond is approximately 0.05ct and Peridot is 0.34ct).

Chain included.
