The snake is one of our oldest and most powerful symbols. Snake symbols already exist as zigzag lines on rock walls, that is since the beginning of mankind. Because of the Christian Fall, the snake is poorly regarded in our culture, but in other cultures it is valued and revered (China, Aboriginal culture of Australia).
Because of its flaying, the snake is considered a sign of renewal, and rebirth. It is associated with the world tree that connects heaven and earth, and because of its resemblance to a phallus, with fertility. Thus, she is a frequent companion of deities of the earth, healing and fertility.
The venom of the snake can kill or heal, making it a symbol of the duality of life and death. Thus, it also has a protective and guardian function between the worlds. The snake stands for wisdom, because as a reptile that "disappears" in winter, it knows the underworld. She is considered cunning, very patient and very fast when she bites.

Hello! My name is Marco Schreier, I am the stone-loving founder of the Mineralienhandlung GmbH of the same name. My career in the field of gemstones, precious stones, pearls and designer jewelry only began relatively late.
Originally, my attention was focused on collector's minerals, then on polished stone products such as tumbled stones, etc. Later, drilled stones were added, which, worn on a leather strap, were the first jewelry we offered. With the establishment of our office in Bali, Indonesia in 2001 and shortly afterwards our office and company in Hong Kong, I created the basis for integrating many of my favorites such as special crystals, specially cut, rare gemstones, free-form cabochons, beads and pearls into my own jewelry.
Chili Jewels® is our professional brand for the specialist trade with low wholesale prices and outstanding offers from our own production of silver jewelry, stone jewelry, necklaces and bracelets with real stones.
