Peridot, also known as Chrysolite is a yellow green, transparent variety of the mineral Olivine. This beautiful olive green stone is one of the very few gemstones that is only found in one colour. The vast majority of gemstones were formed in the earths crust, but not Peridot. Together with diamonds Peridot was formed in the molten rock of the upper mantle. It is brought to the surface by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. Peridot are also sometimes found in meteorites.
Metaphysically, Peridot is regarded as a powerful healing crystal. It is a gemstone that can help find love and help strengthen relationships and marriage. This is a gemstone that can help prevent nightmares and ward off evil spirits together with negative emotions.
