STORY

In ancient Etruria, located on the edge of a plateau, ten megaliths separated by narrow passages delineated the monumental observatory of Poggio Rota. The Etruscan religion venerated deities who dwelt in the heavens, and for them the observatory represented the point of contact between the earthly and celestial worlds. On full moon nights, at the height of the warm season, families gathered on the hill of Poggio Rota to observe the stars and celebrate the mysteries of the cosmos. Priests and astronomers, adorned in white robes and surrounded by smoking torches, took up positions to observe. As dusk gave way to night, the sky opened before them, dotted with glittering stars. The Etruscans studied the celestial vault in depth to predict human events; using rudimentary instruments, they calculated the arrival of the seasons and interpreted the stars as divine omens. As families gathered around burning fires, priests performed sacred rites to honor the celestial gods and ask for their protection. They sang ancient hymns, burned incense, spices, and fragrant flowers, and offered prayers to the stars. In the darkness of the night, the Poggio Rota Observatory became the center of the Etruscan cosmos, where magic and science merged into a single mystical experience. Each spray of  Astra noctis , a symbol of the enchantment and magic of this place, is a journey through time, a sensory experience that transports the wearer among the stars and the ancient ruins of this extraordinary place.
