Per Aspera ad Astra | Roche Limit Ring for the Star-Bound and Shattered

Orbiting Pain, Collapsing into Light

“Per aspera ad astra.”

Through hardship, to the stars.

In astronomy, there’s a threshold called the Roche limit — the closest a moon can come to a planet before being torn apart by gravitational force. This ring is about that: what you would risk, just to get close.

Fragmented Design, Celestial Weight

Cast in deep silver alloy, the ring features a disrupted, open-split design — as if broken in half and carefully pieced back together by orbit itself. Its surface is textured, as if worn by tides or crushed by proximity. From certain angles, it reflects starlight; from others, it swallows it whole. It wraps the finger like a soft, silent implosion.

For Those Who Would Shatter to Stay Close

This ring is for those who move toward love knowing the cost — the ones who embrace annihilation if it means becoming someone’s ring of memory. Wear it with nothing else. Only 2 exist. Like a satellite past the limit, it will not return.
