Peridot is commonly found in countries such as the United States (Arizona and Hawaii), Pakistan, Myanmar, China, and Vietnam. It can also be found in some African countries like Egypt and Tanzania.
The country with the most letters in its name is the United Kingdom.
The most populous country in the world is China, with over 1.4 billion people.
Sweden is the most populated country in Scandinavia, with a population of around 10 million people.
India is the second most populous country in the world, after China. It has a population of over 1.3 billion people.
The most expensive form of peridot comes from specific meteorites, or, as they are known to collectors, pallasites. Peridot found in these is usually not in great shape due to impact, but when they are workable for faceting can run thousands of dollars above earthly peridot. A peridot from a pallasite found by Robert Haag is listed at $50,000. Part of that is likely the setting which is 22 karat gold, rimmed with diamond and lesser stones culled from the main peridot. On the same site for Robert Haag there is a 1.5 carat faceted peridot pulled from a pallasite. Price for that is not listed however.
