What to know about… PERIDOT!
PERIDOT and peridot jewelry designed by women!
What is special about peridot? It is the only gemstone that shares the same origin as diamond: deep in the Earth’s mantle (a-la lava and meteorites), not in the crust.
It’s also one of the earliest recorded gemstones mined in history from a tiny island in the Egyptian Red Sea now known as Zabargad around 300 BC.
Some historians believe that a portion of Cleopatra’s famed emeralds may have been peridot!
It was the “gem of the sun” to Egyptians and to ancient Romans it deterred jealousy. On the topic of Rome, you’ll see Dubini Jewellery’s authentic ancient coins, set off by the juicy hues of peridot.
