Large 18th Century Reproduction Globe
Out of Stock
The skills of the blacksmiths from the Baroque era are legendary. They applied their art to churches, to the stairways and railings of mansions, to trade signs and a myriad of other ornamental and practical creations. We love the graceful curls and curves so popular in the Baroque decorative tradition. Contrasted and offset by the austere metal rings used to cradle this historical globe, they create a focal point in a well thought out and planned home décor. Handmade wrought iron stand. Truck shipment only.

 Authentic Models  creates and distributes a comprehensive collection of historical reproductions and unique home décor worldwide. The aim is to challenge the mind as well as the eye. No other company in the world offers reproduction antique globes and armillary of similar quality and affordability.  Attention to detail is key. All globes are made using original charts, researched for their historical accuracy and visual appeal. Centuries ago globes were made by gluing copperplate printed gores on a plaster finished papier-mâché core. Given the limited technology available at the time, a complicated production process, and a multitude of specialists involved, it was logical that only the very rich could afford to own globes. This is illustrated by 18th C. Dutch painters who used globes to symbolize affluence, science, sophistication, and even worldliness. Authentic Models globes offer history at your fingertips and highlight some of the world’s most famous cartographers: Mercator, Hondius, and Vaugondy.
