Facts about Peridot Gem quality peridot is extremely rare and the stones are the gem quality variety of forsterite olivine. The name peridot is believed to come from either the French word 'peritot' meaning 'unclear' or the Arabic word 'faridat' meaning 'gem'. Peridot is often referred to as 'the poor man's emerald'. Peridot is one of the few gemstones that is available in only one color. The depth of green depends on how much iron is contained in the crystal structure of the stone. Depending on the amount the stones vary from yellow-green, olive, to a brownish green. Peridot crystals have been found in iron-nickel rich meteorites. It is also found in Brazil, Upper Burma, Minas Gerais and Egypt.
