Our Italian-made globes are modelled on originals from the 17th century, when the shape, content and even existence of lands beyond Europe were matters for conjecture and debate.
They include delightful images of legendary sea monsters, landmarks and foreign peoples, illustrating just how little was actually known and why sailors had so many misgivings about embarking on voyages of discovery.
WOOD PEDESTAL GLOBES - are mounted on decorative mahogany-stained pedestal.
Available in three sizes 13" diameter, 8.5" diameter and 5.5" diameter
