Peridot
A stone attributed with magical
powers, the peridot has been
associated with magic and healing.
It was strongly associated with the
Sun. Peridot's stunning beauty and
bright color caused the ancient
Egyptians to call it "the gem of the
sun." It was believed that peridot
glowed with its own inner light even
after sunset, and that miners used to
locate the stones at night to retrieve
them during the day.
It is believed to cure liver disease,
dropsy; to free the mind from
envious thoughts; and to dispel the
terrors of the night.
For best results, the ancients
suggested that the peridot should
be set in gold.
The Peridot is usually found in a light
green, almost electric color.
It is found in plenty in areas like
Australia, Brazil, Burma, Sri Lanka,
and the United States.
As peridot is a gemstone that forms
deep inside the Earth and brought to
the surface by volcanoes, in Hawaii,
peridot symbolizes the tears of Pele,
the goddess of fire and volcanoes. The Arabic word "faridat," meaning
gem, is where the name for the gem
peridot comes from.
Peridot is type of olivine, and comes
in various shades of green, from
light to a brilliant olive green.
Olivine contains two types of
minerals: fayalite and forsterite.
Fayalite, with the mineral formula
Fe2SiO4, contains large quantities of
iron. Forsterite contains magnesium,
and has a formula of Mg2SiO4.
Olivine's formula is (Mg, Fe)2SiO4,
showing the substitution of
magnesium and iron. Peridot is the
transparent form of forsterite.
