Starfix

Show a constellation with a dedication

The seven stars of the Plough, the constellation people have navigated by for centuries, pierced through the face of a 150 mm block with the name and a date beneath. Drop an LED tealight or puck in through the open top and the stars glow; choose the night that matters (the first trip, the proposal).
