Whose birthstone is Peridot and what month does it represent?

Peridot is the birthstone for August, worn by those born in that month. Sardonyx and spinel also serve as August birthstones, but peridot remains the most recognized. Its green color has represented August for centuries, making this necklace a direct match for a late-summer birthday.

What length chain does this pendant come with?

This necklace comes on a 17 inch 14K yellow gold chain. The length is fixed rather than adjustable, sitting between a choker and a standard 18 inch chain. It works for most necklines and keeps the peridot pendant positioned near the base of the throat.

How does this pendant sit at 17 inches?

This 17 inch necklace falls just above or at the collarbone on most wearers, depending on neck size. The peridot pendant settles at the center front and stays visible above open and scooped necklines. Higher collars may partly cover it, so it suits lower cuts best.

What clasp does this necklace use?

This 14K yellow gold necklace closes with a spring ring clasp, a small round mechanism opened by a spring-loaded lever. It holds securely at the 17 inch length and sits flat against the back of the neck. The clasp connects to a ring at the opposite end of the chain.

Can I layer this pendant with other necklaces?

This 17 inch necklace layers well with longer chains at 18 to 24 inches, since the length difference keeps each piece visible. Pair it with plain gold chains or other pendants for spacing. Matching yellow gold tones across the stack keeps the look consistent with the peridot setting.

Is this necklace suitable for men and women?

This peridot necklace suits anyone drawn to a green stone on a 14K yellow gold chain. The 17 inch length and round pendant read as versatile rather than gendered. Men who prefer a shorter chain and a single centered stone can wear it as readily as women.

A round peridot rests at the center of this 14K yellow gold necklace, held in a setting that frames the stone's green color while letting light reach it from the sides. The stone connects to a fixed bail that threads onto the 17 inch chain, keeping the peridot centered as it moves. At this length the pendant falls near the collarbone, so it reads well with open and scooped necklines. Every order ships free with a 30-day return policy.

The Meaning

Peridot is the birthstone for August, a stone that ancient cultures linked to light and warmth. Egyptians called it the gem of the sun and believed its green glow held protective power, wearing it to ward off night fears. The color comes from the stone itself rather than any trace element, which gives peridot its steady, even green.

That connection to August makes this necklace a fitting marker for a late-summer birthday or an anniversary that falls in the season. Given to someone born under that month, the stone carries a small note of when they arrived and who thought to remember it.
