Vivid as a sunlit meadow in high summer, the Iris is a natural peridot engagement ring built around a lively oval-cut gem and encircled by a bright simulated diamond halo. Set in solid 925 sterling silver with a luminous rhodium finish, it turns August’s birthstone into an everyday piece of joy — radiant, wearable and quietly meaningful.

An oval halo built for light
The Iris frames its oval peridot in a classic halo of simulated diamonds, a design that does two things at once: it makes the center stone look larger and it throws extra sparkle around the vivid green heart. A delicate 1.7 mm band keeps the proportions dainty and feminine, so the gem stays the star. It is a shape that flatters every hand and reads equally well as a birthstone ring, a promise ring or a nature-toned alternative to a traditional solitaire — the kind of piece you will find throughout our nature-inspired engagement rings collection.
The natural peridot
Peridot is one of the few gemstones that occurs in a single, unmistakable color — that fresh olive-to-lime green born of iron within the crystal itself. Ours is a genuine natural peridot, oval-cut at roughly 6.0 x 8.0 mm (about 1.3 carats), chosen for its clarity and glowing saturation. Because it is natural, expect the same lush green character you see in our photos with the subtle individuality that makes a real gem feel alive. Discover more of the stone in our wider peridot jewelry range, and read the full story of its color and lore in our complete guide to peridot meaning.
A brilliant simulated diamond halo
Ringing the peridot is a circle of simulated diamonds that add crisp, budget-friendly white sparkle and make the green center glow all the deeper. It is a bright, brilliant way to capture classic engagement-ring shimmer without the classic price tag. Prefer a lab-grown diamond or moissanite halo instead? Message us — most of our designs can be upgraded.
Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish
The Iris is crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with a layer of rhodium — the same precious metal used on fine white-gold jewelry. That rhodium finish gives the ring a bright, mirror-white luster and a protective shield that helps resist tarnish and everyday scratches, so the silver keeps its freshly polished shine. A comfort-fit interior makes it easy to wear from morning to night.
What peridot symbolizes
Long called the “gem of the sun,” peridot has been worn since antiquity as a talisman of strength, renewal and light-hearted positivity. As the August birthstone it makes a heartfelt gift for a late-summer birthday, an anniversary or simply a moment worth marking.

Frequently asked questions
Is the peridot natural?
Yes. The center is a genuine natural peridot, prized for its glowing olive-green color that comes from within the crystal itself rather than any dye or treatment.
How big is the center stone?
It is an oval-cut peridot measuring approximately 6.0 x 8.0 mm, around 1.3 carats — a generous, eye-catching size for a dainty band.
What are the halo stones?
The halo is set with simulated diamonds that add crisp white sparkle and make the green peridot look even more vivid. If you would prefer a lab-grown diamond or moissanite halo, reach out and we will tailor it for you.
What metal is it made from?
Solid 925 sterling silver, finished with rhodium for a bright white luster and extra protection against tarnish and scratches.
What does the rhodium finish do?

Can I wear it as an engagement ring?
Absolutely. Many couples choose peridot for a colorful, meaningful alternative to a diamond solitaire. It also makes a lovely promise ring or August birthstone ring.

It will share the same rich green color and oval cut. As a natural gem, each peridot carries its own subtle individuality, which is part of its charm.
