Exquisite Peridot Concave Pear Shape Cut Necklace Agustina

Agustina 【 Romance 】 Peridot, known as the "stone of the sun." The concave cut is what most beautifully amplifies peridot's vibrant, overflowing green essence. It is extremely rare for peridot, which is typically found in very small rough stones, to be cut in such a large size. A peridot with such clarity and deep green hue, like in this piece, is in its finest state. Its truly beautiful sparkle is captivating enough to gaze at all day! This is a challenging stone that requires a polisher specializing in peridot. Each stone will inevitably contain black flecks of biotite.

Ancient Egyptian pharaohs adorned themselves with gold and peridot, believing it possessed the power of the sun god. The Romans called it the "evening emerald" because it remained visible and did not darken even at night. Later, peridot is said to have been brought back by the Crusaders and used to decorate medieval churches. Large peridots, over 200 carats, adorn three chapels of the Magi at Cologne Cathedral. 【 Bonus Column: The Mystery of the Sun, Ancient Egyptians, and Peridot 】 Peridot is olivine formed in the upper mantle deep within the Earth, brought to the surface by magma. In addition to peridot derived from Earth's geological activity, it can also be found within iron meteorites that have traveled from space. These are said to be peridots born during the formation of the solar system, created by the energy from the gravitational collapse of dense gas in the galaxy about 4.5 billion years ago that formed the sun. They are the oldest gemstones available on Earth (unlike other stones, which originate from crustal movements or sedimentation). Now, peridot is green, so why did ancient Egyptian pharaohs, without astronomy or advanced technology, revere and wear peridot as an avatar of the sun god? Why did people wearing simple cloth associate peridot with the sun? It is a wonder. Peridot shines with a mystical brilliance, gracing us even today.
