Birthstone Collection August Peridot Barbie Doll 2002 Mattel C5326

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 reflects the glorious hues of the peridot and brings happy wishes for your very special birthday month. August Peridot Barbie doll wears a spectacular gown trimmed with chiffon and sparkling with glitter. A lovely stole wraps around her shoulders. The faux peridot pendant on her necklace is actually a glittering Swarovski crystal.
