Peridot chips in the 3–5mm range bring the warm, glassy green of genuine olivine gemstone to your work — each piece naturally irregular, no two exactly alike.

The color runs in the yellow-green to rich olive range characteristic of peridot, with the translucent depth you get from real semi-precious stone rather than glass or dye.

What to make with them

String them as continuous strands for boho-style necklaces and wrap bracelets where the organic chip shape does the heavy lifting, or scatter them between seed beads in loom and off-loom weaving for earthy, nature-forward texture.

Description

Small gemstone are both popular and versatile. Their convenient size makes them easy to work with, and useful in a wide variety of designs. You can use them as a subtle color accent or base your entire design upon them. Their natural organic shape makes them a great partner for beads like precious metal rounds or metallic seed beads. Peridot (PAIR-ee-doh), August's birthstone, is also known as Olivine and Chrysolite. The intensity of Peridot's zesty lime green color is dependent upon the amount of iron within the stone. Peridot's perky color makes this stone a perfect compliment to bright summer fashions. It is said that the Queen Cleopatra's extensive "emerald" collection was actually a large collection of high quality peridot. Peridot was a wildly popular gem in the Baroque period, and is once again gaining in popularity.
