Peridot: It is said that Peridot was Cleopatra’s favorite gemstone. Hawaiian legend states that Peridot gemstones are the tears of the goddess Pele. Peridot has been used to slow the aging process and help with one’s speech. It has also been used to help find things that are lost.

Tourmaline: Tourmaline derives its name from the Sinhalese word “tura mali” (stone of mixed colors). However, according to the Ancient Egyptians, tourmaline traveled along a rainbow on its way down to earth, which is why it’s sometimes called the “rainbow stone”. No two pieces of tourmaline are the same. Tourmaline is said to have a powerful influence on love and friendship. It is said to help dispel fear and grief, and can lend itself to give tranquil sleep.
