AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pendant Peridot / Cabochon / new

Set in 925 Sterling silver.

Includes leather cord

2.78 g / 13.9 ct (weighed without leather cord)

17.4 mm x 11.6 mm x 6.5 mm

New and unworn.

Peridot, also known as chrysolite, is a particularly pure variety of the mineral olivine. This bright-green, transparent mineral is used as a gemstone.

Peridot is the magnesium-rich form of olivine (forsterite) with a composition close to Mg2SiO4. Its crystals are orthorhombic, and its hardness is slightly lower than that of quartz.

Peridot is pale green in color, ranging from yellow-green to olive-green. There are also brownish varieties known.

Peridot is sometimes confused with emerald and other green gemstones, such as chrysoberyl, diopside, moldavite, as well as garnet (demantoid), quartz (prasiolite, praſem) and tourmaline varieties (chromolith, verdelite).

Already in the Old Testament Peridot (as pitdah) is mentioned, and in ancient Rome the stone was valued as an “evening emerald” because it can be easily illuminated by lamplight. In the Middle Ages, Peridot was often part of church adornment; presumably Peridot stones were brought to Europe by the Crusaders. The stone was attributed with healing powers, as well as the power to ward off evil spirits.
