I Hate Peridot! I Hate Peridot! I Hate Peridot! 

You guessed it, I'm an August Baby, and I got stuck with Apple Green, when I'd just as soon have, hmmm, Blue Zircon -- matches my baby blues...

Anyway, the point is, I won't buy Peridot unless it's killer Peridot. I won't buy the stuff that has brown tinges to it, and I don't buy the stuff that looks all yellowy. (I wonder if I can use yellowy in a scrabble game? :-) Oh, and I won't buy the stuff that's all full of carbon or those flat lily pad thingies.

It'd better be a good, clean, solid green, or I don't carry it. 'Nuff said.

This ring just looks great! 

This ring sits nicely on the finger, heavy filigree, center stone displayed well. This is a seriously solid ring.
