Hexagon Desktop World Globe by Replogle Globes

A portion of  the sales supports the conservation and education programs of the Frank Lloyd Wright foundation. A Guide to Understanding Your Globe Frequently Asked Questions In 1952 the renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright developed a series of hexagonal metal  furniture to compliment the geometric shape of Price Tower in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, which he designed. Full-swing Meridian Antique style brass-plated die-cast meridian (ring supporting the globe) allows the ball to be turned 360° for easy access to thousands of points of interest from any possible angle. The 12" diameter fully up-to-date globe revolves within the meridian ring (East/West), and the meridian swings within the stand (North/South). Raised Relief To better emphasize the mountainous areas of the world - there are ‘bumps’ on some areas of the globe. They are called raised relief.  They are there so that you can ‘SEE & FEEL’ the mountains - although their actual height on the globe does not have any relationship to the true relative heights of the mountain ranges.
