Soft radiance. Eternal calm.
Inspired by Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon, The Embrace of Selene captures the quiet majesty of celestial light. A luminous natural diamond is framed by a perfect round halo, forming a delicate crown of brilliance that reflects light from every angle, serene, balanced, and endlessly glowing.
Available in a wide range of centre stone shapes, including round, cushion, asscher, emerald, marquise, princess, radiant, and oval, this ring can be tailored to reflect your unique sense of elegance and expression.
The band is smooth and unbroken, offering simplicity with presence, nothing to distract, nothing to overpower. Like the full moon rising in stillness, this design speaks not in extravagance, but in harmony and grace.
Crafted in 18k white, yellow, or rose gold, The Embrace of Selene is for the woman who glows without trying. Who carries grace as presence, not performance. Who shines, simply, softly, eternally.
Key Details:
- Natural diamond, ethically sourced
- Round halo setting with polished band
- Available in round, cushion, asscher, emerald, marquise, princess, radiant, and oval cuts
- Crafted in 18k white, yellow, or rose gold
- Handcrafted in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter
THE FOUR PILLARS
Every Astella ring is handcrafted in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter and hallmarked at the Birmingham Assay Office before it leaves our studio.
We work in 18ct yellow gold, 18ct white gold, 18ct rose gold, and platinum, each chosen for its durability, appearance, and how it wears over time.
Not sure which metal is right? Our specialists will guide you through the differences during your consultation, or visit our metal guide for a full breakdown.
We work primarily with lab-grown diamonds, optically, chemically, and physically identical to mined stones, and our primary recommendation for every engagement ring.
Natural diamonds are available on request. All centre stones are GIA certified and hand-selected by our team for cut, colour, and clarity.
Your diamond is never picked at random, it's chosen with the same care as the setting it sits in. Not sure where to start? Our diamond guide covers everything you need to know.
Every ring we make is covered by the Astella Ever After Lifetime Guarantee, a commitment to the quality of our craftsmanship for as long as you own the piece.
This includes complimentary resizing within the first year, a professional clean and polish whenever you need it, and our guarantee to make things right if anything isn't as it should be.
We're based in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter and you're always welcome to bring your ring in.
All Astella rings are made to order and typically ready within 4–6 weeks.
Your ring is delivered via Royal Mail Special Delivery, fully insured and tracked from our studio to your door.
Because every piece is made specifically for you, we handle any concerns directly and personally. If something isn't right, we'll always make it right.
