2002 August Peridot Birthstone Barbie - B3416

Since ancient times, birthstones have been considered lucky for people born in that month. This beautiful tradition continues to this day.The peridot is August's birthstone. The gem is believed to bring the wearer a happy marriage, eloquence, and self-esteem. The jewel is thought also to hold the power to deepen friendships. Egyptian pharaohs owned and wore the finest peridots. Peridots were also prized in the Ottoman Empire; Turkish sultans collected what may be the world's largest collection. Our tribute to the August birthstone brings happy wishes for your very special month. August Peridot Barbie wears a faux peridot pendant on her necklace, which is actually a glittering Swarovski crystal.
