Geology & Composition: Peridot is the gem-quality variety of olivine, a magnesium iron silicate, and it is unusual among gemstones for occurring in only one color. Most gems come in a range depending on which trace elements are present, but in Peridot the green is not an impurity at all. It comes from the iron built into the mineral's essential chemistry, which means every Peridot on earth is green, ranging from a yellowish olive to a rich lime depending on how much iron is present. Its origins are extraordinary. Olivine is one of the most abundant minerals in the earth's upper mantle, and Peridot reaches the surface only when deep volcanic activity carries it up, which is why it is found in ancient lava flows and in the rock beneath long-extinct volcanoes. It also arrives from much further away, having been identified in pallasite meteorites, making it one of very few gemstones found both on earth and in material that formed in space. Our Peridot comes from Pakistan, where the deposits high in the Kohistan region of the Himalayas have produced some of the most celebrated material in the world since they were discovered in the 1990s. Found at extreme altitude and accessible only during a short summer window, Pakistani Peridot is prized for its exceptional clarity and its vivid green color. 

PLEASE NOTE: To Prolong the life of your bracelet, we recommend that you do not swim, shower, or bathe with your bracelet on. Exposure to water can weaken the band and knots. It can also cause erotion on the clasp if you choose a metal alloy clasp. We also recommend taking your bracelet off before going to sleep and not stretching or playing with your bracelet to limit the changes of it getting caught on something and snapping the band.

Peridot Meaning and Properties: Peridot radiates positivity and power, creating a sense of warmth and genuine wellbeing. It is an extremely joyful stone that is said to help you find happiness in almost any situation, which is a rare quality among crystals and the reason so many people keep one close during a heavy stretch. It is also a cleanser. Peridot is carried to clear away resentment, frustration, and old emotional weight, making room for lighter, more generous feeling to take their place. It enhances confidence, eases anger, and is known as a great motivator, offering light-hearted vibrations without ever feeling weightless or unserious. Peridot activates the Solar Plexus Chakra and balances the Heart Chakra, which is what allows it to build confidence and open warmth at the same time. It has a long reputation as a stone of prosperity and abundance. Though it is an Earth Element stone, it emanates the power of the sun, and that combination of grounded footing and solar brightness is exactly what leads you toward courage and positive energy.

About the Solar Plexus Chakra: The Solar Plexus Chakra, also known as the Manipura, is located near the belly button and is thought by many to be your power center. A balanced Solar Plexus Chakra helps you recognize yourself as a powerful and confident being, capable and ready to take on future challenges. It is associated with the Element of Fire and closely resonates with the Sun, which suits a stone born in volcanic fire. When balanced, the Solar Plexus Chakra is an area of strength and courage.

About the Heart Chakra: The Heart Chakra, also known as the Anahata, is located in the center of the chest. It is the chakra most in tune with your emotions, especially love. When the Heart Chakra is aligned, it helps to open you to new experiences and new relationships of all kinds. It also helps to ease past hurts, and helps you learn and grow from negative experiences. The Heart Chakra is the chakra of compassion, allowing you to forgive and be forgiven. It helps bring love to you, and helps you to push loving energy into the universe. Paired with the Solar Plexus, this is what gives Peridot its particular character: confidence and openness arriving together rather than one at the expense of the other.

How to Wear It: Peridot is traditionally worn on the left wrist (non-dominant hand). In crystal practice, the left wrist is your receiving side, drawing energy inward, while the right wrist (dominant hand) projects energy outward. Since Peridot is carried to draw in happiness, abundance, and light-hearted energy, the left wrist is its natural home. It is also where its cleansing work happens best, clearing out the heaviness you have been carrying so there is room for something better to arrive. Move it to your right wrist (dominant hand) when you need its Solar Plexus fire. Peridot is a great motivator and a stone of confidence and courage, and the right wrist carries that outward into the day, whether you are starting something new, asking for what you are worth, or simply need to move with a bit more conviction.

One practical tip, whichever side you choose. Your non-dominant wrist takes less daily wear, so less flexing, catching, and pulling, which helps the elastic band and knots last much longer. If the wrist your intention calls for happens to be your dominant one, that is perfectly fine, just be a little more mindful with it.
