Peridot: Are peridots the divine tears wept by Pele, Hawaiian goddess of the volcano? Or
the powerful talismans against evil of ancient Egyptian lore? Peridot
has been credited with many magical powers and healing properties. Today, peridot is one of the most popular gemstones, prized for its fresh green color. Peridot is the
birthstone for August and the suggested gift
for the sixteenth wedding anniversary. Peridots are mined in Arizona, Burma, Norway, Pakistan, among others.
Peridot rates 6 1/2 to 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness.
Peridot Care: Do not use an ultrasonic cleaner on your
peridot jewelry. Avoid sudden
temperature changes, steaming and contact with cosmetics, hairspray, perfume or household chemicals. Clean only with a damp cloth or soft brush with room temperature water.
