About This Design

Urania's Mirror, Vintage Astronomy Celestial Map Magnet

Urania's Mirror, Vintage Astronomy Celestial Map Magnet

Vintage illustration astronomy and antique celestial image featuring three constellations, Gloria Federici, Andromeda and Triangula. Gloria Frederica was a constellation created by Johann Bode in 1787 to honour Frederick the Great, the king of Prussia who had died in the previous year. It was located in a region between the constellations Cepheus, Andromeda, Cassiopeia and Cygnus. It is no longer in use. Andromeda is a constellation in the northern sky named after Andromeda, the princess in the Greek legend of Perseus who was chained to a rock to be eaten by sea monster Cetus. It is sometimes called "the Chained Lady" or "the Chained Woman". It has also been called Persea (Perseus's wife) or Cepheis (Cepheus's daughter). The Andromeda Galaxy is named after the constellation, as it appears within its boundaries. Triangulum (Latin for triangle) is a small constellation in the northern sky. Its name derives from its three brightest stars, of third and fourth magnitude, which form a nearly-isosceles long and narrow triangle. Triangulum was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd century astronomer Ptolemy, and remains one of the 88 modern constellations.

My work uses Velcro spots and laminated paper for the "clean/dirty" sign and has to replace it every few weeks (people resist using it as the Velcro dots peal off). I saw these and instantly purchased them for work AND our home dish drawers. I am really impressed by the quality and being raised slightly means they are easy to grab and turn over. Visual Such a great solution and highly recommended! The printing is great - I like the colourway and the font.

I think that besides the cute picture on the magnet, this product is strong, sticks well to surfaces, and is a great addition to any household. The image is perfect, and looks just like the character in the book.
