Peridot
August birth crystal
Peridot is a green gemstone, a variety of the mineral olivine.
The distinctive yellow-green color comes from iron in its crystal structure.
Peridot has been prized since ancient times—Cleopatra's famous emeralds may actually have been peridots.
It's the birthstone for August: She wore a peridot ring for her birthday.
