peridots
Olive-hued crystals
Peridots are gemstones of olive-green color, a variety of the mineral olivine.
The distinctive yellow-green hue comes from iron content.
Peridot is the birthstone for August: Her ring featured a cluster of small peridots.
The gems have been prized since ancient times, sometimes confused historically with emeralds.
