Description

A modern talisman informed by enduring symbolism.

“Lacerta” derives from the Latin word for lizard. Across cultures, the lizard has appeared as a symbol associated with protection, adaptability, and renewal.

In various African traditions, including Dogon and Bamun cultural symbolism, the lizard is connected to life force and continuity. In parts of Hawaiʻi, the moʻo (lizard) is regarded as a protective presence within ancestral storytelling.

This piece honors resilience — the ability to endure, adapt, and move forward with quiet strength.
