Stargazing and the Supernatural

Victorians, both sailors navigating the oceans and ordinary land-dwelling citizens, held a strong fascination for both the stars and the spiritual realm.

While seamen continued to harbour superstitions about celestial events, in Victorian Britain there was an explosion of interest in mysticism and supernatural forces.

Our celestial range takes inspiration from this historical fascination, much of which continues to beguile us into the modern day.
