Description
The cartography which is prolific in place names, also depicts boundaries, rivers and mountains, as well as the Great Wall of China, beautiful figurative cartouches, peoples from various parts of the world, mythical and known beasts. Famous explorers’ routes and numerous galleons and ocean-going vessels are also to be found.
Our 33″ Terrestrial Coronelli was used in the Lara Croft ‘Tomb Raider’ movie, where it is the possession of Lord Croft, here we were also commissioned to alter an area of Cambodia on the globe to portray an ‘Unexplored Region’. You will also find both terrestrial and celestial versions at Harry Potter’s school of wizardry ‘Hogwarts’.
DELIVERY
Bespoke globes can take in the region of 6-18 months to complete, depending on how busy we are, and which globe you want. Please contact us with any questions, we are always happy to discuss your requirements and advise on lead times and payment options.
When purchasing our historic facsimile globes, and large modern globes we take a 50% deposit when the order is placed, and the remaining 50% plus delivery when the globe is completed.
Delivery will be calculated then the globe is ready, due to fluctuating costs of shipping.
