Peridot, which was once called "the stone that shatters the waves of darkness," was used as an amulet to ward off the fear of darkness and keep away evil spirits. Its history is ancient, and in ancient Egypt, it was used by pharaohs as a "sun stone" for ornaments. Peridot has a property called "double refraction," which changes the direction of light when it enters the stone, and it shines even brighter under night lighting, earning it the nickname "Evening Emerald."

A Guardian Stone That Dispels Darkness
Peridot is a stone that holds a bright and powerful energy like the sun. It is a guardian stone that dispels negative emotions such as anxiety, fear, anger, jealousy, and past traumas. It helps to bring your consciousness back to the present so that you are not caught up in negative thoughts, and it fills your heart with brightness and positive energy. It is recommended for those who want to alleviate anxiety and irritation, or who tend to fall into negative thinking.
Enhances Charm and Attracts Attention
Peridot is also a stone that enhances inner charm and improves sociability. Wearing peridot is said to attract the attention of others and draw in the opposite sex. It is recommended for when you go to places where people gather to look for new encounters or an ideal partner. Also, because it shines even more beautifully under night lighting, it is ideal as jewelry to wear at night.
