Observatory Name Sign | Personalized Metal Telescope Sign
Observatory Name Sign | Personalized Metal Telescope Sign
This personalized observatory sign is laser cut from 16 gauge steel and powder coated in the USA. A telescope on its tripod points up to the sky inside one wide, solid ring. The name curves across the top of the ring and a second line, such as OBSERVATORY, curves across the bottom. For the backyard astronomer who deserves a sign on the door.
- Two lines, your words. Type them in the customizer and watch the live preview update before you order.
- Built to last. 16 gauge steel, powder coated, made in the USA. Indoor or outdoor, it will not rust or fade.
- Hangs in minutes. No tools and no drilling into the sign. The mounting holes are cut into the ring.
- Made for one stargazer only. Every sign is cut to order with their name, so it can never be a duplicate gift.

Who This Observatory Sign Is For
Buying it for him?
Your husband or dad who is out in the yard every clear night, the grandfather who taught the kids the planets. His name on his own observatory. Buyers of our signs tell us two things: the steel is heavier than they expected, and the man who got it loved it.
Buying it for yourself?
Hang it on the observatory shed, the roll-off roof, the study or next to the scope in the garage.
Prefer a thin double ring? See the telescope observatory name sign. Evenings outside? See the campfire family name sign.
Observatory Sign FAQ
What goes on the sign?
Two lines cut into the ring, for example FUDGE'S on top and OBSERVATORY on the bottom. The telescope is part of the design.
How many letters fit?
Each line holds up to 20 characters. The live preview shows exactly how the text sits on the curve, so check it before you order, because we cut exactly what you approve.
Can it hang outside on the observatory?
Yes. The sign is 16 gauge steel with a powder coated finish, made for indoor and outdoor use. It holds up to sun, rain, dew and cold without rusting or fading.
How do I hang it?
The mounting holes are cut into the ring, so it hangs on two screws. No drilling into the sign and no special tools.
Is it a good gift for an amateur astronomer?
Yes. Most backyard observatories never get a name. This one gets his, in steel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can it hold up outside?
