What Is anEMBER Forever Print?

Most personalised prints put someone's name on a template. EMBER Forever Prints do the opposite — they render the actual sky, moon or ocean of a real moment. The personalisation is not visual decoration. It is the data.

Here is what that means, how it works, and why the print becomes the gift that stays in the room.

The three Forever Prints

1. Night Sky Print. The Night Sky Personalised Star Map Print renders the actual constellations over a specific address at a specific hour — using real astronomical data. Every star in its true position. Common choices: the night a child was born, a wedding night, the moment a home became theirs, or the night two people met.
2. Moon Phase Print. The Moon Phase Personalised Lunar Print captures the exact lunar phase over a chosen date. Quieter than the Night Sky. Often chosen for anniversaries of hard moments, or milestones with a specific tenderness.
3. Tide Chart Print. The Tide Chart Personalised Coastal Print maps the exact tidal rhythm on a chosen date at a chosen coast in Aotearoa. Real oceanographic data. Best for people whose lives are shaped by the sea — surfers, fishermen, coastal-home dwellers, or families whose weddings were on a beach.

There are also Forever Print editions for the specific milestones of a life: Babies First Night Sky, Babies First Moon, Wedding Night Sky, Wedding Moon. Each uses the same real-data rendering, tailored to the moment.

How to order a Forever Print

• Choose the print type. Night Sky, Moon Phase, or Tide Chart — depending on what part of the moment you want held.
• Enter the date and location. Any date, any location worldwide. The system uses real data to render what the sky, moon or sea did at that place and time.
• Choose the medium. Seven options available: museum fine art paper, canvas, aluminium metal, acrylic, framed timber (three timber colours), puzzle, and instant digital file.
• Choose the size. A4, A3, A2 or A1 depending on the medium.
• Add the title, sub-title or coordinates. Some couples include a shared line of poetry. Some parents include their child's name. Some prefer just the date and coordinates. It is your call.

Print mediums explained

Aluminium metal. Dye-infused metal print with a subtle sheen. Contemporary. Best for modern homes and offices.

Acrylic. Behind-acrylic print with a glass-like finish. High-end gallery look. Best for statement pieces.

Framed timber. Timber moulding in white, black or raw oak. Ready to hang. A4 to A1.

Puzzle. The Night Sky, Moon or Tide print as a 150 or 300-piece puzzle. Quieter gift, family-oriented.

Digital file. Instant delivery. A3 print-ready PDF. For last-minute gifts, or for people who want to print at their local framer.

Why Forever Prints work as gifts

Because time does not erode them. Fifteen years after receiving a Night Sky print of the night a child was born, the print is still on the wall — and the meaning has grown. The date is the same, but the family around it has changed. This is what considered gifting looks like.
