Illustration of a simple three-axis gimbal set.

The Westminster, a chic and sleek Replogle Floor Globe, is as modern as it is classic. Its modern side includes a beautiful raised-relief topographical, political map that is colorful and bright in the midst of a backdrop of a charming, antique cream color of the waterways of the globe ball map. Contemporary place names and other cartographical information are exhibited on this political world globe in great detail and in a vintage style.

The pastel shades of the landmasses on the map of the world globe sphere are in lovely contrast to the smooth, dark floor stand of cherry-finished hardwood.

The stand suits both modern and classic settings. Its contemporary features include the minimalist, smooth finish of the massive equator ring and the understated ornamentation which is perfect for modern decor, yet the three-legged mount with curved accents of the Replogle floor globe is reminiscent of classical furniture at its best.

The 16-inch diameter world globe ball is encompassed by a full metal, calibrated, die-cast gimbal-mounted meridian. A gimbal is a pivoted support that allows the rotation of an object about a single axis. This means that you can rotate the globe horizontally, as well as vertically, for all-around access.
