Peridot Stud Earrings by Carl Ansley

Gemvara peridot stud earrings are a classic that you'll wear your whole life. Every pair of our stud earrings is made to order in your choice of gems and precious metals. Most jewelry manufacturers compromise on the quality of the gems they select for earrings, choosing a lower quality than gems for rings. They'll even tell you that quality doesn't matter for earrings because you can't see them while you are wearing them. At Gemvara, we hand select each gem for your peridot stud earrings using the same care and quality standards as we use for our gorgeous gemstone rings. Pairs are perfectly matched for maximum impact. We think classics like peridot stud earrings should be the same investment quality as all your beautiful jewelry, a quality you'll be proud to wear. Peridot symbolizes grace under pressure. It forms in volcanoes and has even been found in meteorites, surviving the fiery plunge from space. Gemvara's peridot is a spring green with excellent brilliance. Gemvara's fine quality peridot stud earrings are designed to be passed down for generations to come, crafted by hand in the United States.

While designer Carl Ansley is inspired by the natural world, you'll see it most in the line and proportion of his modern pieces rather than in traditional motifs. Throughout his 22 year-career, which began at Tiffany & Co., Carl has developed a deep appreciation for the artistic process behind creating gorgeous, eye-catching jewelry. Form follows function but doesn't overwhelm it. For example, because rings can twist on the finger, he creates a natural curve high on a ring's shoulders so it will rest comfortably on the finger next to it. He takes great care to create jewelry that makes a bold statement in order to express a woman's own style and personality. Carl says the greatest accomplishment of his long career is designing and crafting his wife's diamond engagement ring and wedding band. It's just what you'd expect from a designer who thinks first of the woman who will wear his jewelry.

A peridot symbolizes grace under pressure. It is thought to bring its wearer good luck and success, while calming nerves and dispelling negative emotions. The most important aspect to consider when buying a period is its color. Gemvara's peridot is a bright spring-green without the olive tones that can dampen this gem's sweet color. The brighter the color, the more valuable the peridot is. Cut is important as well, even more than clarity, since a well-cut peridot will shines in the light of the sun. Peridot is among the "greenest" of gems in another way too, since most peridot is mined, often by hand, by Native Americans on the San Carlos Reservation in Arizona. Peridot is the August birthstone, the zodiac stone for Leo, and the 16th anniversary gem. All Gemvara jewelry is made to order, which ensures that a premium-quality peridot will be hand-selected to perfectly suit your design. Crafted in the United States, Gemvara's fine peridot jewelry is precious and personal, surely to be passed down for generations to come.
