Peridot's timeless history and symbolism
The ancient Egyptians, who mined the stone on the volcanic island of Topazos (now St. John's Island), named it as the “gem of the sun,” believing its light could ward off evil and ensure the wearer's happiness. Its luminous green colour became popular in Europe during the Medieval era, where it was often used to decorate churches and was thought of as protection. During the Victorian era, peridot had a huge resurgence and was frequently set in intricate gold designs, admired for its soft glow and romantic charm. Today, its vibrant colour continues to inspire elegant, meaningful jewellery.
Peridot is a thoughtful and meaningful gift, symbolising renewal, positive energy, and growth. Rich in history and affordable luxury, peridot jewellery is the perfect gift for celebrating someone’s unique spirit and brand new beginnings.
