**Peridot – Benefits and Basic Information**  

Peridot (hardness 6.5–7) is a silicate of magnesium and iron, and also contains elements such as manganese, nickel, and cobalt.  

Many countries designate peridot as the "August birthstone," symbolising gentleness and wisdom, family harmony, and career success – bringing good fortune to the wearer.  

Peridot helps relieve tension, refreshes the mind, reduces anxiety, and makes it easier to accept new things and get along better with others. It also soothes the nerves and improves sleep quality. The green light of peridot is also the light of wealth, capable of attracting and accumulating wealth.  

Wearing peridot helps bring lucky energy, making it easier to receive help from mentors and obtain better opportunities. In addition, it strengthens the wearer's own aura and energy field, can serve as a talisman to ward off evil, and also supports liver health.
