Mexico - Saint Malo. On this line between two continents, the first pages of the history of Fournisseur de Pierres, your mineral wholesaler, were written.
In the late 2000s, Sylvain Pean, a Frenchman staying in Mexico, discovered the captivating beauty of a sacred stone in the local culture: obsidian. During this trip, he also met Paulina Méndez, his future wife. From this encounter, an ambitious project was born: to export obsidian to France.
After exploring Mexican mines and collaborating with many local artisans, Sylvain and Paulina created their workshop to produce objects made from obsidian. Immediate success: unique creations, sold in French shops, captivated both mineral enthusiasts and those sensitive to the beneficial properties of these stones for the body and mind.
In 2016, the couple moved to Saint-Malo, in the native Brittany of Sylvain. The company Fournisseur de Pierres then gradually moved to a higher level in its development, diversifying its offerings and positioning itself in the European market.
Travel and networking are multiplying across the world. Partner workshops in South America, Asia (India, Thailand, ...), Africa (Morocco, Madagascar), and Eastern Europe supply raw, cut, or mounted stones. Paulina and Sylvain prioritize ethical companies that are respectful of workers.
Since 2019, the Saint-Malo warehouse has offered over 3000 references. While obsidian remains a flagship product, it is accompanied by precious stones such as:
• amethyst,
• rock crystal,
• carnelian,
• rose quartz,
• tourmaline,
• tiger's eye,
• and labradorite
