August birthstone jewelry features Peridot — a stone of healing, protection, and joy — it has been called "the gem of the sun" since ancient times. Each piece in this collection is crafted in 925 sterling silver with an 18K gold plated finish, making it the perfect August birthday gift or personal meaningful piece.
Peridot is the birthstone for everyone born in August. Its vibrant lime green color has made it one of the most recognizable and beloved gemstones for centuries. Peridot clears old patterns, promotes renewal, and attracts positive energy. Ancient Egyptians believed it protected against evil spirits.
Wearing your birthstone is a tradition that dates back thousands of years — the idea that the stone of your birth month carries special meaning and resonance for you specifically. Whether you wear it for its beauty, its symbolism, or its energy, Peridot jewelry makes a deeply personal statement.
Birthstone jewelry is the most personal jewelry gift you can give. Unlike generic pieces, a August birthstone necklace was chosen specifically for this person — for their birth month, their stone, their meaning. It takes thirty seconds of thought to transform a jewelry gift from "nice" to "meaningful."
August birthdays, end-of-summer celebrations, and gifts for anyone starting a new chapter.
Our Peridot teardrop pendant is the most popular August birthstone gift. The teardrop cut catches and reflects light beautifully, and the shape sits elegantly on the collarbone. Available in both gold plated and silver finishes on an adjustable 16"–18" chain.
The infinity birthstone necklace features a graceful infinity loop with a Peridot-colored stone accent. It's a symbolic design — the stone of your birth month, carried in a symbol of continuity. A popular choice for milestone gifts like graduations and anniversaries.
For a more layered look, our charm-style birthstone necklaces allow the stone to be incorporated into multi-element designs. These work especially well layered with plain chain necklaces for a modern, editorial look.
A birthstone pendant necklace works best as a standalone statement piece on a 16"–18" chain at the collarbone level. For a layered look, pair it with a shorter plain chain (14" choker) underneath and a longer chain (20") above — the birthstone pendant becomes the center of a three-layer stack without competing with other elements.
925 sterling silver with 18K gold plating is durable for daily wear with basic care: remove before swimming or showering, apply perfume and lotion before (not after) putting on the necklace, and store in the provided jewelry box when not wearing. Clean with a dry soft cloth only. These simple habits extend the life of any gold plated piece from months to years.
August's birthstone is Peridot. The stone's vibrant lime green color represents healing, protection, and joy — it has been called "the gem of the sun" since ancient times. It has been associated with August births for centuries, with roots in both ancient astrology and the Biblical tradition of the twelve stones of Aaron's breastplate.
Our August birthstone necklaces feature precision-cut vibrant lime green stones in a Peridot-colored crystal that accurately represents the birthstone color. All pieces are set in genuine 925 sterling silver with 18K gold plating. We are transparent that these are crafted stones rather than natural mined peridot, which keeps pieces accessible while maintaining quality construction.
Peridot symbolizes healing, protection, and joy — it has been called "the gem of the sun" since ancient times. Peridot clears old patterns, promotes renewal, and attracts positive energy. Ancient Egyptians believed it protected against evil spirits. It has been worn as a meaningful stone for thousands of years across multiple cultures.
Our birthstone necklaces come on adjustable chains that fit 16"–18". For most people, 16" sits just at the collarbone — a classic placement for pendant necklaces. If you prefer the pendant to sit lower (between the collarbone and chest), adjust to 18". Both lengths work well for layering with other necklaces.
As long as you know the recipient's birth month, you have everything you need. The birthstone is tied to the month, not the specific date. If you're not certain of the birth month, an infinity necklace or initial necklace is a safer personalized gift option.
Natural mined peridot from a fine jeweler costs $100–$1,000+ for the stone alone. Our birthstone pieces use high-quality crafted stones in the correct color, set in real 925 sterling silver with 18K gold plating. For a birthday gift or everyday personal piece, the crafted stone version is indistinguishable in appearance and lasts just as long with proper care.
