9ct Gold & Peridot Riviere Necklace

109T
360 Admirers
Written by Olly Gerrish

If you love peridots then this 9ct gold riviere necklace is a perfect choice.  The date letter is hard to read but I think it was made in 1958 in Birmingham.  It is in the style of earlier rivieres that were made in the Georgian period, and has been claw set with twenty eight evenly matched peridots.  Peridot is named after the French word peritot, meaning gold, because the mineral can vary towards this colour. Peridot is also the birthstone for the month of August and is the stone given to celebrate the 16th year of marriage.
