POLISHED TRIGONAL BLACK FLINTSTONE (PIRACICABA) | HANDCRAFTED STAINLESS STEEL PENDANT NECKLACE
A LAZZERINI-GEOJOIAS piece with profound significance. Its origins are linked to the great Permian extinction (~250 million years ago), the evolution of petroleum, rare microbiota, the geodiversity of Piracicaba (São Paulo, Brazil), and the unique biochemical properties observed in this crystal since ancient times. Presented as an original design, it features a "snake chain" (rat-tail style) and a handcrafted wire-wrapped pendant (both in stainless steel), showcasing a polished trigonal fragment (219.6 ct) of Black Flintstone.
This specimen was manually collected at the source—specifically from limestone quarry tailings in Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil.

ORIGIN & THE SCIENCE OF BEAUTY
Flint—also known as chert (or "flint" specifically for dark varieties)—is a chemical or biochemical sedimentary rock composed primarily of microcrystalline and cryptocrystalline quartz. It is recognized for its hardness (close to 7 on the Mohs scale), conchoidal fracture, durability, and ability to take a high polish. This specimen stands out for its black and chocolate-brown contrast and a figurative shape sculpted by nature, preserving a history linked to the silicification and diagenesis processes of the Paraná Basin.
SYMBOLISM & TRADITIONS
Since prehistoric times, flint has been used for tools, ornaments, and amulets. According to cultural and energetic traditions, it symbolizes protection, stability, perseverance, courage, and grounding. It is associated with the signs of Scorpio, Leo, and Libra, as well as the Root and Solar Plexus chakras. These references are symbolic and do not replace medical or therapeutic advice.
