What Makes This Gemstone Relevant
Peridot is the August birthstone, and Burma is a recognized source for well colored, clean material like this IF clarity stone. For a broader look at birthstones by month, see our birthstone guide. The emerald cut shows off the stone's apple green color with clean, parallel facets, a popular choice for both solitaire rings and stones set alongside other gems. This piece sits within our broader Loose Gemstones collection.
Buying Considerations
Peridot has a hardness of 6.5 to 7, which is workable for ring use but softer than sapphire or diamond, so everyday wear is fine with reasonable care, avoiding harsh knocks or chemical exposure. At IF clarity, this emerald cut peridot loose stone has no inclusions visible under magnification, which is a meaningful quality marker for the stone's price point.
