Spectacular pear-shaped natural Peridot earrings handcrafted in sterling silver.

Some gemstones are simply too beautiful to ignore.

The Peridot Mahtava Earrings showcase two magnificent 13 x 18 mm pear-shaped natural Peridots, expertly faceted to maximise their brilliance and handcrafted in sterling silver. Designed for women who love colourful statement jewellery, these elegant earrings capture the light beautifully with every movement.

Mahtava means "spectacular" in Finnish, a name chosen by Desiderate founder Janine Leghissa in honour of her Finnish heritage. It perfectly reflects this distinctive collection, where exceptional natural gemstones and sculptural sterling silver settings come together to create jewellery that's impossible to overlook.

Each vibrant green Peridot is suspended from a sterling silver hook, creating a graceful 35 mm drop that flatters the face while allowing the gemstones to shimmer from every angle. At approximately 7 grams each, they have a luxurious feel while remaining comfortable enough to wear all day.

Peridot has been treasured for thousands of years and is often known as the Gem of the Sun. Traditionally associated with joy, abundance, renewal and positive energy, it has long been believed to inspire confidence, vitality and emotional balance. As the August birthstone, these earrings make a meaningful gift for birthdays, anniversaries and life's special milestones.

Designed in Australia and ethically handcrafted, the Peridot Mahtava Earrings are timeless statement earrings that you'll reach for whenever you want to add vibrant colour and effortless elegance to your look.

Complete the look with the matching Peridot Mahtava Ring, Peridot Mahtava Bracelet and Peridot Mahtava Pendant.

Because every Peridot is a genuine natural gemstone, each pair displays its own unique colour, inclusions and natural characteristics, making your earrings beautifully one of a kind.
