Pintadera silver

Inspired by mystery and myth, this silver pendant is a tribute to the pintaderas — geometric stamps once used by the pre-Hispanic natives of the Canary Islands.

Their exact purpose remains unknown. Some believe they served as personal marks, ritual tools, or symbols of identity. One theory links the triangular pintadera to the pyramids of Güímar on Tenerife — adding to the enigma.

I like to imagine the Guanches as descendants of a lost civilization… perhaps even the people of Atlantis.

A piece for those drawn to ancient codes, unsolved stories, and the magnetic pull of forgotten cultures.
