This impressive extra large world globe made in Italy rests on a beautiful wooden floor stand. It may look like an Old World antique globe replica, but the distinctive terrestrial globe actually features a modern world map with political boundaries that have been updated in by the Italian team of expert cartographers at Zoffoli. The Mercatore floor-standing globe brings the traditional style of 16th or 17th century piece of vintage period furniture to any room for class, yet the decorative, rotating world globe is also a current educational and geographical globe for reference.

Resting on a hand-cut chestnut color floor stand made from tanganyka wood, the extra large, 24-inch rotating terrestrial globe is surrounded by a lovely moveable calibrated meridian made of brass-finished aluminum.
