A taste of the stone

August Birthstone Jewellery

Nº 08·Peridot·Leo · Virgo

Peridot only comes in one colour — its own lime green — so buying is about brightness and clean cutting. It's an underpriced stone; often the gold in the setting costs more than the gem.

FAQ

Buying August's birthstone

What makes a good August birthstone gift?▾

A peridot piece is a natural August birthday gift. Pendants and stud earrings avoid ring-size guesswork, while a ring or bracelet makes a larger statement. Every selection here records the listed metal and reports the gemstone classification when the source states one; an unspecified origin remains explicitly unspecified.

Are lab-created or simulated stones worth buying?▾

Often, yes. A lab-created stone has the same material composition as its natural counterpart, while a simulated stone such as cubic zirconia or moissanite imitates a look using a different material. The distinction matters more than either category being treated as inherently inferior, which is why the selections state the recorded composition plainly.

What should you look for when buying August's birthstones?▾

Peridot: look for lime green; at Mohs 6.5–7, it can suit frequent wear. Spinel: look for red, pink, violet or blue; at Mohs 8, it can suit frequent wear. Also check the recorded metal and whether the stone is natural, cultured, lab-created, or simulated.
