Imagine waking up with the stars above your bed, as you peer into a universe of hand-drawn details. This Victorian-era Star Map is a timeless piece of Celestial Decor. Hang it above your fireplace for a classic, cozy feel. Hang above your bed for dreamy nights and mornings.Â
This is one of our most popular prints and has been featured on Emily Henderson’s home decor and design blog. This constellation map has hand drawn stars, stippled celestial forms, stylish typography and a slight antique patina.
This sky map was originally drawn in 1849 by British Commander T. Hull as he journeyed the seas. I’ve retouched and brought it back to life so that you can admire it as a work of art on your wall.

These sky charts were originally designed as 19th Century nautical tools by sailors on long journeys. The description that accompanied this Star Map is as follows: “The months marked at the foot of the map are to show the aspect of the Equatorial Heavens about midnight. By noting the stars on the map immediately over the name of the month, and then looking at the sky in the opposite direction to the elevated pole, the different constellations will readilybe recognized. In Southern latitudes, reverse the star map.”
What our customers have said about the Star Map:
“This is spectacular! Shipping was so fast, and the star map is so detailed and beautiful in person – the pictures do not do it justice! Getting it framed – can’t wait to hang it! Would definitely order from this shop again!” — Natalya
“The star chart is really beautiful. Printed on artisan paper, the depth of color and detail is fabulous. We are having our print framed and cannot wait to see the finished product!” — Sue
“I knew this was going to be good, great even, but my high expectations were floored by how stunning this piece looked once framed. I got a thin black gloss frame for it, and it looks amazing. Fantastic Christmas present for my space enthusiast boyfriend. I got the 24×48 size and I wouldn’t go any smaller. Also got a separate heart plant piece and I am truly speechless. Everything was so securely packed. I will surely return to this shop in the future.” — Alexandra
“I ordered the largest size (30 X 60). Really top notch quality. The paper is thick and textured. The color (Nautical blue) is really saturated. Molly helped me order the correct size. and shipped the piece in a very sturdy tube” — Brad
“I looked around for star charts that would look good on the wall and this was the one that stood out the most. It’s made from good quality paper and looks elegant when framed.” — Richard
