DESCRIPTION

A modern talisman, rooted in ancient meaning.

Lacerta derives from the Latin word lacerta, meaning lizard. Across cultures past and present, the lizard carries powerful symbolic meaning — often seen as a guardian between worlds.

In Dogon tradition, it is believed to bridge the spiritual and physical realms. Among the Bamun of Cameroon, it represents fertility and life force. In Hawai‘i, the lizard is revered as a family protector — a watchful presence of guidance and protection.

Worn close to the heart, the Lacerata pendant serves as a symbol of resilience, protection, and quiet strength.
