Peridot, a vibrant green gemstone, symbolizes strength and protection and is believed to shield its wearer from negative energy and harm. Peridot also represents the August birthstone, as well as compassion, transformation, and growth. It attracts wealth and prosperity and is linked to emotional balance, bringing calm and harmony to relationships.

Peridot rings can be worn on any finger you prefer.  Wearing a peridot ring on the ring finger, especially on the left hand, symbolizes love and emotional balance. The index finger represents leadership, ambition, and personal growth. The middle finger symbolizes balance and responsibility. Wearing a peridot ring on the pinkie finger is linked to communication and relationships. There are no strict rules, and you can wear a peridot ring on whichever finger feels best.

Popular settings for peridot rings include the classic solitaire, showcasing the peridot as the centerpiece. The halo setting, with a ring of smaller diamonds or gemstones surrounding the peridot, adds extra brilliance. The three-stone setting features a peridot flanked by two smaller stones, symbolizing past, present, and future, making it meaningful for engagement or anniversary rings. The pavé setting, with small diamonds or gemstones set closely along the band, enhances the beauty and color of the peridot. Our Secrète jewelry designers can create custom peridot rings with any stone from classic styles to modern, or a custom engagement ring made to match whatever you imagine. 

Bezel settings are popular for men’s peridot rings. A channel setting sets the peridot within a channel in the band. Signet settings feature a flat top where the peridot is prominently displayed. The tension setting holds the peridot in place by the tension of the metal band. Inset settings set the peridot flush with the surface of the band, for a sleek, understated look, ideal for men who prefer a more subtle style.

When selecting a peridot gemstone, and to ensure you acquire a truly exceptional piece, look for a vibrant, rich green color, indicative of high-quality peridot. The stone should be eye-clean, meaning it has no visible inclusions or blemishes to detract from its clarity and brilliance. Pay attention to the cut, which should be precise and well-proportioned to maximize the gem’s natural sparkle and luminosity. Carat weight and the stone’s origin are important. Larger stones are more rare and more valuable. Peridot from locations like Pakistan, Myanmar, and Arizona are valued for their superior quality. Ensure the peridot has a good level of hardness, around 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, to ensure resistance to scratches.

To clean your peridot ring, mix mild dish soap with warm water and soak for 15-20 minutes. Gently scrub the peridot and setting with a soft-bristled toothbrush, focusing on areas where dirt accumulates. Rinse the ring under lukewarm water, ensuring no soap residue remains. Dry with a soft, lint-free cloth and polish the metal band with a jewelry polishing cloth. Store the ring in a soft pouch or separate compartment in your jewelry box to prevent scratches. Proper care and cleaning will keep your peridot ring sparkling.

Peridot, admired for its vibrant green shades, belongs to the Olivine mineral family found in ultramafic rocks, mostly in Myanmar, Pakistan, Brazil, China, parts of the Southwestern U.S., and Hawaii. Olivine’s composition includes magnesium and iron silicates that influence the depth of its green color. Gem quality Olivine is called peridot. The most sought-after peridot color is a brilliant lime green, a sign of a high-quality stone. Variations include deep, olive green, or yellowish-green tones and occasionally greenish-brown hues.
