Mined from: South America

Description: These Lizardite mini hearts from South America are charming, pocket-sized pieces of a fascinating and often underappreciated mineral. A member of the serpentine group, Lizardite is typically soft yellow-green to olive in color, often with subtle veining or a smooth, waxy finish. Its name comes from the Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall, England, where it was first identified—but these particular specimens hail from serpentinized terrains of South America, known for producing vibrant and workable forms of the mineral. Carved into petite heart shapes, these stones make thoughtful gifts, easy meditation companions, or lovely additions to crystal collections.

Geologically, Lizardite forms through the alteration of ultramafic rocks—like peridotite or dunite—during low-grade metamorphism. It often occurs in environments where tectonic plates have interacted, such as ancient oceanic crusts uplifted onto land. Though not as flashy as its gem-quality serpentine cousins, Lizardite carries its own subtle elegance and geological intrigue, especially when shaped into symbolic forms like hearts.

Metaphysically, Lizardite is associated with cleansing, renewal, and emotional adaptability. As a stone of the heart and crown chakras, it’s believed to promote gentle transformation, spiritual attunement, and energetic clearing. Many practitioners use it to help release outdated habits or emotional baggage while inviting a sense of inner peace and fluidity. These mini hearts are perfect for those seeking small but mighty symbols of healing and personal growth.
