Hi Everyone, I have a wrapped piece I'm getting ready to sell. When I purchased the slab, I was told it was peridot with veining. I'm now finding it under olivine. Which is it? Thanks for any help you can give, Deb

They are the same thing. Peridot is gem quality olivine. I've seen this material before. Some people make window hanging thingies with it. Gorgeous wrap, btw. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I can get some done tonight.

That is beautiful. Glad Tela could get you squared away on the material.
