Collection: Moonstra Collection

The Moonstra Collection includes:

• a necklace with a customizable chain in mesh and length,
• an ankle chain.

The jewelry's name is inspired by the brand name "MOONSTRA."

MOONSTRA is a combination of "Moon" and "Astra," representing the moon and stars that have, since the dawn of time, illuminated, influenced life, inspired mystery and escapism through an ancestral fascination for their brilliance and beauty, serving as a guide for humanity, its evolution, its achievements, its beliefs, and its discoveries.

The moon, regardless of its representation, is rich in stories, legends, and symbolism across many cultures and cults that, since antiquity, have been materialized in jewelry making.
In China, it represents the feminine deity through gentleness and clarity.
It holds a special place in Islam, in its calendar and in the practice of the religion.
Greco-Roman civilizations worshiped it through Selene, the goddess of the full moon and maturity, and Artemis, notably the goddess of the moon, birth, and protector of young children.
In Aboriginal mythology, Bahloo is the deity of the moon; he participates in the creation of humanity, particularly women and their pregnancies.
With ancestral wisdom and practical common sense, Native Americans associated each full moon of the year with an energy from nature, a state of mind, and actions to be taken.
In India, it represents the rebirth of man; it brings fertility and fecundity.
The moon is also associated with a strong influence on nature, our environment, our sensations, and our behaviors.
Thus, through all these beliefs, it embodies feminine power, fertility, kindness, freedom, mystery, and influence.
Wearing moon-shaped jewelry also helps channel and develop positive energies, hope, and self-confidence.

Used since prehistoric times and across all continents, mother-of-pearl is rich in meanings. For example, it symbolizes love in ancient Greece, purity and softness for Catholics, and immortality in China.
It can come from all the seas and rivers of the world. The mother-of-pearl used for MOONSTRA jewelry is mainly produced in East China and Indonesia.

Gold plating is a process steeped in history. This gilding technique has been used worldwide since antiquity. Once a sign of wealth and power, it now conveys elegance.

Today in lithotherapy, mother-of-pearl helps to soothe by warding off fears and negative thoughts. It helps develop concentration, inspiration, self-confidence, and self-control. It is associated with the solar plexus chakra and the frontal chakra.
