Where can I find a peridot tiara for my girlfriend's 21st birthday?

Why is the Peridot used as the birthstone for the month of August?
Q. I'm doing a project and for bonus it is asking that I state the reason WHY the peridot is used for the month of August. So...WHY?
Asked by Lady GawGaw - Tue Mar 9 18:30:21 2010 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. No good reason - somebody put it on a list. The color is mentioned in a Google search item as being good with a light summer dress.

Are rubies more expensive then peridot gemstones?
Q. Well, I bought my mom a bracelet with peridot gemstones. I thought it was her birthstone, but her birthstone is actually a ruby. I just want to know how much more money I am looking at spending on a ruby bracelet opposed to a peridot bracelet? Thanks so much!
Asked by Amber - Mon Nov 17 22:14:25 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Rubies do tend to cost more. But peridot is getting harder to find, so in the long run will be worth more.

A. Man-made gemstones that replicate natural ones (i.e. have the same composition and structure) are referred to as synthetics (synthetic ruby, synthetic emerald, etc.), whereas materials that do not have a natural counterpart are called simulants. Some simulants bear commercial names that reflect their real chemical composition (e.g., CZ for cubic zirconia), others are simply bell-ringers bound to catch your ear (fabulite, tanzanion, etc.).

Q. I need to know the typical price of peridot and other information too. Thanks.
Asked by kittyluv - Thu Nov 9 18:28:48 2006 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Peridot (pronounced pair-a-doe) is a transparent yellowish-green Magnesium/Iron Silicate. It is a gem variety of the mineral Chrysolite or Olivine and its chemical formula is given by: (Mg,Fe)2SiO4. Peridot ranges in color from light yellow-green to the intense bright green of new spring grass to olive. Because of the way peridot splits and bends the rays of light passing through it, it has a velvety appearance, a rich glow, and a slightly greasy luster. The purer green a peridot is the higher the value. Any tinges of brown or visible flaws greatly diminish the price. See jewelry made with peridot. The best-colored peridot has an iron percentage of less than 15% and includes nickel and chromium as trace elements.bracelet It is not clear… [cont.]

Why has my peridot gemstone (in a ring setting) lost its color?
Q. I bought the ring three years ago and its gemstone is supposed to be a faceted "Starburst Peridot", but recently it has become a cloudy white hue...is it a a faux gem or something?
Asked by willsgrl84 - Mon Apr 24 16:54:41 2006 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Peridot is not normally treated. There is also no commercial synthetic for Peridot. It is a lovely stone but it is a little soft (hardness about 6.5) and brittle. It is susceptible to certain chemicals (acids) & thermal shock so it needs a bit of care, especially if it is set as a ring. I need to see your stone to be sure, but here are some questions that might lead you to solve this mystery: First off, are you certain this stone is a Peridot? Most jewellers are not gemologists and may not be able to correctly identify a stone. If proper gemological tests have not been conducted on this stone, it could turn out to be anything! If you are certain it is a Peridot: Do you wear your ring often? Do you use creams or sprays? Do you cook… [cont.]
