Peridot is gem-grade olivine, the ancient "gem of the sun" of Egyptian mining and one of the few stones found in meteorites, and modern crystal practice keeps it as a heart-centered stone: Judy Hall files it at the heart chakra, and the tradition reads it for renewal, warmth, and releasing old grudges. Worn daily at this dainty scale it is the quiet version of the birthstone, present, green, and unshowy. The beads promise no outcomes; they wear the tradition while your own practice does its work, which is the honest arrangement all stone jewelry keeps.

1. Wear it alone as a fine green line, or stack it with other 3-4mm strands.
2. Roll it on and off rather than pulling one side; stretch cord lasts longer that way.
3. Keep it clear of perfume, lotion, and the shower.
4. Store it flat; a soft dry cloth is all the cleaning it wants.

• Peridot Chip Necklace, 32 Inches: the long strand to the wrist's fine line.
• Peridot Quartz Butterfly Bracelet, 6mm: the bolder sibling with the charm.
• Peridot Untumbled Stones, 1 lb: the raw form for the working shelf.

Will it fit my wrist?

The stretch cord fits most adult wrists comfortably; 3-4mm beads wear light and low-profile.

Is the color uniform?

Peridot comes in one color with many shades; beads vary naturally within that olive-to-spring green, which is the mark of real stone.

How do I keep it well?

Roll it on and off, skip perfume and water, and wipe with a soft cloth; stretch bracelets repay gentle habits.
