The story

Peridot glows with a sunny lime green that seems lit from within. It's long been known as a stone of positivity, believed to chase away bad dreams and bring good luck.

Did you know?

Peridot forms deep inside the Earth - and has even been found in meteorites that fell from space.

Spinel and sardonyx are also August birthstones.
