Peridot is from the mineral olivine. It is a transparent-translucent gemstone with a rich and bold green colour.

This mysterious stone is sometimes found in meteorites which can hold remnants of our solar systems birth. In 2005 they found Peridot in comet dust on the stardust robotic probe.

Peridot has something known as double refraction, when you look at the stone closely you can see two of each facet. This wondrous stone is said to bring good luck and peace as well as strength to the wearer. There was a time where it was vastly believed that Peridot found in volcanic ashes were the tears of the volcano Goddess, Pele.

August is the birth month associated with Peridot.

About us

Cambanos and Son Agencies is a family business started by Jean and Dennis Cambanos in 1982, it was a small curio wholesaler working out of an office in Johannesburg town centre. They offered customers something extra, personal service and the pledge that they would always make sure the customer was happy.

Our mission

The business is now one of the biggest in South Africa, supplying the world with African curios. But the pledge remains the same “Make sure the customer is happy” and hope they eventually become friends. The business is still run by the family today; Gerry Cambanos is only a phone call away if you require a piece of Africa in your home.
