Greenwich Observatory coaster by artist Emily Ward has been hand pressed locally onto a FSC rated hardbacked coaster. The coaster has been produced from original artwork by Emily.
This art coaster of the Royal Observatory in Greenwich captures the landmark in a vivid and uplifting palette. The building’s red-brick exterior glows against a dazzling pink and purple sky, where soft clouds seem to swirl with movement and light.
The blue-grey domes and spire rise gracefully above the structure, adding contrast to the warm tones below. In the foreground, a field of flowers bursts with colour, vibrant shades of purple, pink, yellow, and green scattered in playful dots that fill the scene with life.

The Royal Observatory
The Royal Observatory in Greenwich stands proudly on a hill overlooking the River Thames, marking the historic centre of world time and longitude. Established in 1675 by King Charles II and designed by Sir Christopher Wren, the observatory became a pioneering site for astronomy and navigation. Its distinctive domed roof and red-brick façade make it instantly recognisable, while the Prime Meridian Line that runs through its courtyard attracts visitors from around the world.
Surrounded by the greenery of Greenwich Park
, the observatory offers stunning panoramic views of London, blending scientific heritage with architectural elegance. Today, it remains a powerful symbol of discovery, exploration, and humankind’s enduring fascination with the stars.
