As a gift for someone of a certain age with a birthday in August, I was asked modify my style of bracelet that was inspired by a visit to Vindolanda, near Hadrian’s Wall. Peridot is the birthstone for August.
Five of the same sized peridot look unbalanced, but this solution, though trickier to do looks good. The centre peridot is fixed on one side only to allow the bracelet to expand.
