The circle is one of the oldest symbols of wholeness — no beginning, no end, echoing the sun, the moon, and the cyclical rhythms of life. Left slightly irregular by hand, its edges suggest that wholeness does not require flawlessness.
At the center sits peridot, long associated with the heart chakra and prized for its bright, vital green. Ancient traditions called it the stone of joy, worn to invite lightness, ease resentment, and open the wearer to abundance.
As the August birthstone, it holds a sense of late-summer vitality — ripening, warmth, and growth coming into fullness.
The oxidized silver is intentional: darkened metal against bright green sets up a tension between shadow and light — the same movement peridot is said to support, from old weight into clarity and gratitude.
