August - Peridot / Spinel

August Birthstone: Peridot & Spinel

Peridot is the primary birthstone for August, known for its fresh lime-green color and vibrant glow. Formed deep within the Earth’s mantle and brought to the surface through volcanic activity, peridot has long been associated with light, energy, and renewal.

Spinel, a modern August birthstone, is prized for its brilliance and wide range of colors, including vivid reds, pinks, purples, and blues. Often mistaken historically for ruby, fine spinel offers exceptional beauty and durability, making it a standout choice for unique jewelry.

At French Cut Gems, we specialize in natural colored gemstones selected for their individuality, color, and character. We do not always carry these stones in stock, as we prioritize sourcing exceptional examples over maintaining large inventory.

Below is a selection of available gemstones that can be used to create a one-of-a-kind piece. Each stone is thoughtfully handpicked for its natural beauty.
