Sun, star and moon jewellery

People have worn the sky for thousands of years. Egyptian goldsmiths shaped the sun, Romans wore the crescent moon as the lunula, and the star has guided travellers across cultures.

THENÚM's celestial jewellery reimagines these symbols in sculptural form: sun-face earrings, the spiral sun, the Starseal medallion and the crescent moon. Each piece is made in 925 sterling silver, left pure or finished in 18K or 22K gold micron plating, and produced in limited runs.
