Peridot, the gem form of the mineral olivine, traces its jewellery roots back more than 3,500 years.

It was first mined by the ancient Egyptian on the island of Zebargad in the Red Sea. Zebargad was known as the “serpent isle” because it was infested with snakes that interfered with mining activity until one Pharaoh finally had them all driven into the sea.

Found in various shades of green, Peridot is most prized in lime hues. The Roman called Peridot “evening Emerald” because its green colour was said to glow at night.
