Celestine's Girding is a miraculous suit of Power Armour owned by the Blood Ravens Chapter.^[1]

The birth of its creation lies with Saint Celestine and the Palatine Crusade, as described in the Canticles of the Palatine Crusade:

When Celestine's body was set down amongst the honoured dead on the fields of Eurytion, her Sisters saw that life lingered within her yet and they reverentially approached, cleaning her body of the blood and filth of battle until she stood flawless before them.

The Canticles go on to state that a fragment of the barding she wore that holy day was forged into the Celestine's Girding.^[1]
