Born in August? Your birthstone, peridot, holds centuries of meaning, beauty, and personal significance. At LUO Jewelry, we celebrate the August birthstone through exquisitely crafted pieces that honor tradition while embracing contemporary elegance.

What is August's Birthstone?

Peridot is the primary birthstone for August. With its distinctive olive-green hue, peridot has captivated jewelry lovers for over 4,000 years and remains the most popular choice for August birthstone jewelry.

Other August Birthstones

Spinel: Available in vibrant black, red, pink, orange, and blue
Sardonyx: Features distinctive reddish-brown and white banding

At LUO Jewelry, we primarily feature peridot for its unmistakable beauty and historical significance as the traditional August birthstone.

August Birthstone Meaning

The August birthstone carries profound symbolism:

Strength & Vitality: Known as the "gem of the sun", peridot symbolizes strength, vitality, and positive energy. Ancient Egyptians called it the "gem of the sun" for its radiant glow.
Protection & Healing: Historically believed to ward off nightmares and negative energy while promoting emotional balance.
Love & Loyalty: Represents enduring relationships and faithful commitment
Prosperity: Associated with abundance and good fortune throughout history

August Birthstone Color

Peridot displays a unique color palette:

Classic Olive Green: The most recognizable and sought-after shade
Lime Green: Bright, vibrant tones with yellowish undertones
Deep Forest Green: Richer, more saturated hues (highly prized)
Yellow-Green: Lighter, spring-like variations

The intensity of peridot's green depends on iron content—the richer the iron, the deeper the green.
