Peridot Gemstone Beads Collection

What Is Peridot?

Peridot is a vibrant green gemstone variety of the mineral olivine prized for its fresh luminous color, crystalline sparkle, and luxurious natural brilliance. Peridot ranges from bright lime green and yellow-green to olive, golden green, mossy green, and vivid apple-green tones.

Unlike many gemstones that occur in multiple colors, peridot naturally forms only in shades of green due to the presence of iron within its crystal structure.

Peridot has been treasured for thousands of years in jewelry, royal adornment, decorative art, and ancient collections because of its vivid color and glowing transparency.

Some rare peridot crystals have even been discovered in meteorites, adding to the gemstone’s fascinating history and uniqueness.

With a Mohs hardness of approximately 6.5–7, peridot is considered moderately durable for jewelry making and artisan beading projects.

At Tiny Gem Supply, we specialize in carefully curated peridot gemstone beads ranging from delicate micro gemstone beads to luxurious collector gemstone strands for refined jewelry and artisan beading designs.
