Collection: Astra Nova
Astra Nova is a jewellery collection inspired by celestial navigation, myth, and the search for direction in uncertain times. Its name — meaning “new stars” — reflects a quiet yearning to reorient, to begin again, and to move through darkness guided by inner light.
The collection draws on the spirit of ancestral fishermen from Pekalongan (Central Java), who once navigated by starlight. Echoing the rhythms of the northern coast and patterns found in Pekalongan Coastal Batik, Astra Nova interprets cycles of making, undoing, and rebirth into jewellery that balances story, form, and symbolism.
Each piece is hand-forged in silver, transforming fragments once imbued with hope, memory, and quiet trials into new constellations. The designs embrace imperfection, with every star-shaped form carrying subtle variations, capturing the singularity of experience and the layered journey of becoming.
Through recurring celestial motifs, rhythmic structures, and reflective forms, the collection creates a cohesive universe while allowing each piece to stand as an individual talisman. Astra Nova invites wearers to carry guidance, reflection, and resilience — tangible reminders that from what was lost, new stars can emerge.
Explore the collection to discover how myth, navigation, and filigree craft converge to create heirloom jewellery that guides, inspires, and endures.
