Olivine Peridot Information

Natural olivine peridot beads captivate with their vibrant green hues, ranging from yellow-green to olive. These stones stand out for their brightness and vitality, making them a popular choice for jewelry. As a symbol of strength and renewal, peridot adds a fresh, natural touch to various designs, from casual to elegant.

Formation

Peridot forms deep within the Earth’s mantle under high temperature and pressure. It is a variety of olivine, rich in magnesium and iron. As magma cools, peridot crystals solidify and rise to the surface through volcanic activity. You can find natural peridot in both igneous rocks and meteorites, making it a rare and sought-after gem.

Fashion and Jewelry

Peridot beads shine in vibrant jewelry pieces, often used to create bold, eye-catching designs. Their green shades look stunning in necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and rings. Artisans typically facet these beads to enhance their natural sparkle, though peridot can also appear in smooth, polished forms. Peridot beads pair beautifully with gold and silver accents, and their color works well in both summer and winter collections.

History, Mythology, and Symbolism

In ancient Egypt, people called peridot the “gem of the sun,” – it protected them from evil spirits. The Romans used it to soothe the mind and bring happiness. Today, peridot is a stone of abundance and vitality. Perifot symbolizes renewal and marks new beginnings – a favourite among those seeking personal growth and transformation.

Mining, Production, and Applications

Peridot is primarily mined in regions such as Pakistan, Myanmar, and Arizona, USA. While some peridot comes from volcanic rocks, others come from meteorites, which adds to the stone’s mystique. Skilled artisans cut and polish peridot beads, focusing on the gem’s natural beauty. These beads appear in fine jewelry as well as casual and boho designs, showcasing their versatility in the fashion world.

Koi Fish Symbolism

Koi fish are steeped in symbolism, embodying resilience, transformation, and the pursuit of personal growth. Rooted in East Asian traditions, koi are admired for their strength to navigate through turbulent waters, mirroring the human spirit’s perseverance against life’s challenges. This resilience inspires wearers to view obstacles as pathways to self-improvement.

In Chinese lore, koi symbolize ambition and triumph. The fable of a koi ascending a waterfall to become a dragon speaks to transformation and success. Wearing these koi motifs serves as a reminder of our capacity to overcome hardships, emerging not just intact but enhanced, like the dragon from the river.

Koi also represent harmony and balance. Their serene dance through the water reflects a peaceful alignment with life’s ebb and flow. Combining koi charms with semi-precious stones not only enhances this tranquil energy but also bridges the wearer with the profound symbolism of nature.

These earrings, adorned with koi charms, are a celebration of resilience and grace, capturing the essence of serenity in every movement.Koi fish hold profound symbolism across cultures, embodying resilience, transformation, and the pursuit of personal growth. Originating in East Asian traditions, koi are revered for their ability to swim against strong currents, symbolizing perseverance in the face of challenges.

Care Guide

Durability

  • Gold-Plated Brass English Lock Lyre Hooks: Elegant and stylish, but the gold plating can wear off over time. Avoid rough handling to prevent scratches.
  • Beads (Semi-Precious Stone, Pearl, Seashell, Artglass, etc.): Durable but can be prone to surface scratches. Handle with care to maintain their luster.
  • Koi Fish Charms (Painted and Plated): The painted charms are delicate, while the plated charms can easily scratch. Both types add unique charm but require gentle handling to avoid damage.

Suitability

  • Casual Wear: These earrings can be worn for casual outings. Be mindful of moisture and abrasive contact to preserve their beauty.
  • Daily Wear: Comfortable for regular use due to hypoallergenic materials. However, limit exposure to water, sweat, and cosmetics to extend the life of the gold plating.
  • Special Occasions: Perfect for special events. The unique koi fish charms and intricate designs add an elegant touch. Handle gently to maintain their pristine condition.

Storage

  • Store in provided lock bags to protect from dust, moisture, and scratches.
  • Keep separate from other jewelry to avoid tangling and potential damage to the plating and delicate charms.
  • Prevent exposure to sunlight, moisture, and chemicals to reduce the risk of color fading and oxidation.

Cleaning

  • Gently wipe with a small microfiber cloth meant for jewelry polishing to remove fingerprints and restore shine.
  • It is fine to clean with water, but ensure thorough drying to prevent oxidation of the findings.
  • Avoid using abrasive or chemical cleaners, as these can damage the gold plating and delicate surfaces.

Additional Tips

  • Be mindful of the large size and intricate design to avoid tangling in hair.
  • Treat the koi fish charms gently, as bending them back and forth can lead to breakage over time.
  • For plated charms prone to fingerprints, breathe on them and wipe off with the polishing cloth provided.
  • Avoid contact with perfumes, hairsprays, and household cleaners to maintain the plating and charm finishes.
  • Protect from prolonged exposure to water or humid environments to ensure longevity.
