I checked a few of my favorite haunts (PrecisionGem, Dan Stair, GemRite, Finewater), and they all seem to be sold out, especially for matched pairs. But you may be in luck...check out these stones from Art Cut Gems:
Ovals
Trillions
ETA: Also check out Dutton''s for some really inexpensive peridot pears.
Thank you all for the replies! I apologize for the late reply as my macbook was sent for servicing and I will not get it back till after the holiday. Yes I will ceryainly check out all the recommendations! I am currently thinking of a pair of Peridot Cabochon earring. Do you have any idea where to find a pair? TIADate: 2/12/2010 9:27:58 PM

Chic, Andrew at Gemfix.com has some really nice matched pair peridot. I saw some the first day of the big show in Tucson on Thursday morning.
He has some of the really good rapidly dwindling peridot from Pakistan and Afghanistan.
He doesn''t post most of his inventory on his site, although you can get a feel from it. he is at the Tucson show until Sunday and then he will be back in San Diego. Give Andrew or his very nice wife, Laura, a call and tell them your wishes/requirements, if they can make you happy they will tell you.
Good luck!

I looked around and saw many pairs of precision cut pairs of peridots but they are all described as apple green which to me, means that it is slightly yellowish green.
Tks distinction and chrono for the replies! So has anyone came across a pair of peridot cab? Where should i look fo one? TiaDate: 2/15/2010 9:15:58 AM

Yeah - nicely cut peridot in small sizes for earrings are easy to find. Ones without any yellow tone, not so easy.
