Native Hawaiians treasured peridot as the tears of the fire goddess Pele. Peridot stones have been around for millennia, having been mined in Egypt by lamplight at night as the stone was too hard to see in the daytime. Peridot stones are famous in modern times as the birthstone for both August and Leo. Peridot crystal beads are prized for their green hues, both at the yellow-green end of the spectrum and the brown-green end. Use peridot beads in any jewelry piece you’re making, from rings to earrings to necklaces, for a stunning, colorful addition!
