Our collection of celestial (or star) charts feature the work of Andreas Cellarius (1596 - 1665) from the famous ‘Atlas coelestis seu Harmonia Macrocosmica’ - commonly regarded as one of the most spectacular cosmographical atlases that was published in the second half of the seventeenth century.

All charts are laid on to cloth and, along with the slip cases, are individually made by hand in our Buckinghamshire workshop.
