Amanda’s Style File: Peridot That Pops
To kick off August, Amanda Gizzi is sharing jewelry featuring the month’s OG birthstone.
Sig Ward 14-karat yellow gold peridot and diamond infinity ring ($4,400)
With August’s arrival, we celebrate those with birthdays this month.
If you listen closely, you can hear the Leos roaring passionately and the Virgos patiently waiting for their perfect opportunity to shine.
Shine they both will, as August has two glorious birthstones—peridot and spinel.
To kick-start what National Jeweler Editor-in-Chief Michelle Graff and I selfishly refer to as the best month of the year, we’ll first shine a spotlight on the OG August birthstone: peridot.
Peridot’s lime hue is the perfect summer gemstone. Lime green is a big trend and peridots become a fun accent to play off summery tones that pop.
Later this month, Amanda’s Style File will showcase the other August birthstone, spinel, in all of its glory.
For now, here are 16 peridot Style File selects fall in love with.
