Fresh, vibrant and full of meaning, Peridot is one of the most distinctive gemstones of the summer. With its unmistakable green glow, it's a stone that captures the feeling of long sunny days, fresh starts and effortless style.
Whether you're celebrating an August birthday, looking for a meaningful gift, or simply drawn to its uplifting colour, our handmade Peridot jewellery is designed to be treasured for years to come.
Why Peridot is the Ultimate Summer Stone
Few gemstones feel as perfectly suited to summer as Peridot. Its naturally bright green tones reflect the colours of nature at its peak – from lush gardens to coastal landscapes.
The stone's fresh, light-catching appearance makes it easy to wear throughout the season, whether layered with other gemstone necklaces or worn as a simple everyday piece.
Our newest High Summer Collection celebrates this perfectly, with Peridot taking centre stage in some of our favourite seasonal designs.
The Meaning Behind Peridot
Often known as the stone of wellbeing, Peridot has been treasured for centuries for its uplifting energy.
It is traditionally associated with:
- Wellbeing and balance
- Positivity and optimism
- Renewal and personal growth
- Confidence and inner strength
Every Decadorn gemstone comes with its own gemstone meaning card, making each piece a thoughtful gift with a story behind it.
August's Birthstone
Peridot is the official August birthstone, making it a meaningful birthday gift for anyone born during the month.
Its vibrant green colour symbolises warmth, happiness and abundance, making it a beautiful alternative to more traditional birthstone jewellery while still carrying deep personal significance.
Whether you're shopping for yourself or someone special, Peridot jewellery is a gift they'll wear long after summer has passed.

Helen's Top Peridot Picks
Whenever I'm designing with Peridot, I'm always drawn to its incredible fresh green colour. It feels so full of life and perfectly captures the feeling of summer. Here are three of my favourite ways to wear it this season.
1. The Summer Glow Necklace
I love this piece because it brings together two things I always come back to in my designs – meaningful gemstones and timeless symbols. The fish has long been associated with good fortune, and carved in Peridot it feels so fresh, playful and perfect for summer. It's a piece I'll be wearing on repeat with linen shirts and simple white T-shirts.
2. Peridot Dome Necklace
The Dome Collection has been such an exciting one to design. I wanted to create a shape that really let the beauty of the stone shine through, and the smooth domed cut does exactly that. As the light passes through the Peridot, you see all of its natural depth and vibrant green tones. It feels like a fresh new take on our signature gemstones.
3. Peridot Gem Slice Necklace
If I had to choose a classic Decadorn piece, it would always be one of our Gem Slice necklaces. Every slice is completely unique, which is what makes natural gemstones so special. The organic shape lets the character of the Peridot speak for itself, creating a necklace that's timeless, easy to wear and one you'll reach for year after year.
4. Silver Peridot Carved Necklace
I've always loved mixing refined gemstones with bolder chains, and this piece does exactly that. The hand-carved Peridot has such a beautiful softness to it, while the chunky sterling silver chain gives it a contemporary edge. It's one of those necklaces that makes a statement on its own but is still easy to wear every day. If you love silver jewellery, this is definitely one of my favourites from the collection.
