Earth from space! This style of globe is reminiscent of the famous Pale Blue Dot photograph. Painted carefully to show the more heavily forested areas as well as where Earths deserts are. The ocean gets lighter as it nears the coasts and makes use of the watercolours to really show texture.
Each base is fitted with roller bearings to enable fluid movement in any direction by hand. This colouring of globe looks great with all the bases we offer.
Our globes are all made to order, the cartography will always be up to date and reflect the world as it was when you commissioned your globe.
The ocean is shown in it’s suggested colour to contrast beautifully with the land but different colours can be requested.
The Albion bases are available with or without the little metal feet by request, they look great both ways.
Presented with its own bespoke flight case, your base will be fitted with an inscribed copper plaque noting the edition number and style, and shipped with a certificate of ownership.
The commission includes a personalised engraving and 10 cartography edits, we will be in touch with more details after you place your order to discuss.

The featured antique in New York Cottages & Gardens’ Fall Style issue is our mid-18th-century armillary sphere by French globe maker Louis-Charles Desnos (magazine page shown left), under the title “Orbit of Influence.” The full page article quotes George as to “what makes it special”: “This is a particularly early example of an armillary sphere by a famous maker. It was produced during the Age of Enlightenment, when astronomy was considered an important component of a well-rounded intellect.” George also notes it is unusual to see an armillary sphere of this age in such good condition.
