This peridot pendant pairs a classic, understated setting with a colour that catches the eye from a distance. The faceted cut splits light into small flashes of green, so the stone shifts in intensity with every movement of the head. Four stones set side by side form a line that naturally draws the eye toward the neckline. It's a design free of unnecessary embellishment, one that keeps all the attention on the stone.

A peridot of such rich, clear colour is genuinely hard to come by, and matching a second stone in exactly the same shade later on is no easy task. Nature itself limits the availability of fine stones, and silver and precious metal prices have long been on the rise, so buying now makes sense price-wise. The setting is refined silver of European quality, sterling silver 925 - the fineness confirms the purity of the alloy, which contains no nickel or other harmful additives. The surface is protected by a layer of rhodium, a hard metal resistant to scratching, so the shine won't dull over the years. The metal is stamped with the French maker's mark - a guarantee of the quality and origin of the precious metal.

Styled for the city, this pendant looks good with a simple white shirt left open at the neck, or with a leather jacket thrown over jeans. The green stone at the neckline brings life to understated, everyday outfits without needing any extra jewelry. At 0.8 g, the pendant wears light from morning to evening. The medium size suits both a loose sweater and an open-collar shirt.
