For 20 years, every Simone Jewels creation has begun as a story. Inspired by history, each moment becomes something to uncover through jewellery.
For its 20th anniversary, Simone Jewels turns this philosophy of discovery towards a new horizon.
Introducing HIDDEN GEMS: CELESTIAL ATLAS, the main collection of the Maison’s anniversary year. Inspired by the age of celestial navigation, the High Jewellery collection looks to a time when the heavens offered a way forward into the unknown. Its story begins among the stars, but ultimately leads somewhere far more personal.
A Celestial Atlas
Long before modern navigation, travellers looked to the sky for direction. The positions of the sun, moon and stars helped navigators find their way across vast distances, gradually turning the night sky into a map of pathways waiting to be understood.
Yet humanity found more than direction in the heavens. Scattered points of light became constellations. Patterns emerged. Stories were written into the sky. It is this relationship between celestial navigation and discovery that forms the foundation of HIDDEN GEMS: CELESTIAL ATLAS.

Rather than recreating celestial maps literally, the collection captures their sense of wonder. Stars, moons, suns, clouds and compass roses appear throughout the designs, softened into fluid, feminine forms. Celestial rays and orbital movements emerge as subtle details, creating jewellery that feels dreamlike rather than astronomical.
Jewellery Designed to Be Discovered
At the heart of HIDDEN GEMS: CELESTIAL ATLAS is an idea central to Simone Jewels: not everything is meant to be seen at once.
Each creation invites a closer look.
A jewel may swivel to reveal another detail. A surface can shift to expose a hidden gemstone. Forms open, reverse or transform, changing the way a piece is seen and worn.

These mechanisms are not simply feats of craftsmanship. They embody the collection's story. Discovery takes time, and the most beautiful details often reveal themselves only when one chooses to look closer.
Through movement and transformation, every jewel becomes its own journey of unveiling.
Discover the Stars Within You
The celestial atlas may have guided journeys across the world, but the deeper meaning of the collection lies within.
Just as individual stars reveal constellations when viewed with greater perspective, HIDDEN GEMS: CELESTIAL ATLAS reflects the idea that our own strengths, beauty and brilliance may also reveal themselves over time.
For Simone Ng, Founder and Creative Director of Simone Jewels, this became the heart of the collection:
“Throughout history, people looked to the stars to guide their journeys. I believe we all carry our own guiding stars, sometimes we simply need to discover them. This collection is my interpretation of that journey.”
As the main chapter of Simone Jewels’ 20th anniversary, HIDDEN GEMS: CELESTIAL ATLAS looks both outward and inward. It celebrates two decades of transforming stories into wearable art while returning to an idea that has always been at the heart of the Maison: the most meaningful beauty is rarely revealed all at once.
Some journeys lead us to discover new worlds. The most personal ones reveal something within ourselves.
HIDDEN GEMS: CELESTIAL ATLAS. Discover the stars within you.
