About Birthstone Jewelry
August Birthstone: Peridot
The lively light green hue of August's birthstone conveys positive energy and optimism, and those born in August are said to be happy, generous people. Peridot is also believed to promote tranquility, enhance speech, and foster good relationships in marriage.
History of Birthstones
Chances are you can name your birthstone, but have you ever wondered how certain stones came to be associated with particular months? Most gem scholars trace the tradition to the Old Testament story of Aaron, whose breastplate was decorated with twelve precious stones, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Over time, these stones were linked with certain powers and tied to particular astrological signs, and later to calendar months.
There are many variations of birthstone lists, including Mystical birthstones, which originate from Tibet and date back over a thousand years, and Ayurvedic birthstones, associated with ancient Indian medicine and beliefs. Birthstones have also been tied to ancient Pagan religions, and even to the collective wisdom of the legendary lost city of Atlantis.
The Modern birthstone list, perhaps the most universally known, was released by the American National Association of Jewelers and officially adopted in 1912. Whether you embrace birthstone lore, or look upon it with a skeptical eye, there is an undeniable appeal to collecting a beautiful gemstone that is reputed to hold special power, meaning, and good fortune just for you.

Beautiful!,

This review is from: 18k Yellow Gold Plated Sterling Silver Peridot and Diamond Accent Butterfly Hoop Earrings (0.7" Diameter) (Jewelry)
The earrings exceeded my expectation. They are so beautiful! The gold [overlay] is perfect and the peridot stones sparkles beautifully. I am happier with this purchase than the other peridot earrings I got which is pure 14K. I highly recommend this one, you won't regret you purchase this. I got this at under twenty (after additional 30% off this month offer), it's really a very good deal. I'll be buying again another similar kind from Amazon.

Color Fades,

This review is from: Yellow Gold Plated Sterling Silver Citrine Butterfly Hoop Earrings and Diamond Accent (0.7" Diameter) (Jewelry)
I got the earrings and the matching ring for my wife. The color has already faded from both in just a few short months since Christmas. They are very pretty but now since the color is fading I have to really focus and look at them from a distance to even tell that they have stones.

This review is from: 18k Yellow Gold Plated Sterling Silver Garnet and Diamond Accent Butterfly Hoop Earrings (0.7" Diameter) (Jewelry)
I wasn't sure I'd like these earrings based on the photo alone. I was surprisingly pleased when they arrived. They are quite pretty, delicate, nicely-sized, and unique. I've had several compliments on the appearance of the earrings. I would use caution if you have any allergies to metals in jewelry. I thought that the 18K gold overlay would be fine but apparently it was not for me. I have no problems when I wear fine jewelry and I am not so allergic that I have to shop only for hypo-allergic jewelry, but I've found that these earrings are a problem. Within minutes of wearing them, my ears do feel irritated and at maximum, I can only wear them for one day. If I attempt to wear them two or more days in a row, they produce an intolerable irritated feeling.
