An antique brass and black metal base is the foundation upon which this globe is built. The 12'' antique ocean desktop globe features a calibrated semi-meridian.

This is a beautiful globe and the city names are large enough for me to read without my glasses yay!. Laura. Santa Fe, NM. Tue, 01 Sep 2026

This beautiful Antique French or English World Globe will give you a world perspective. Its enduring appeal comes from the Antique French or English World Globe, solid walnut-finish base, and die-cast semi-meridian. Even in your office, the world is within reach. This globe is also available with French text.

I love this globe! It is easy to read and the ivory tones work perfectly in my office.. Cheryl. Palm Coast, FL. Thu, 14 Sep 2023

Get a closer look at the world, thanks to the gyro-matic mounting that swings up or down to bring any area into closer view. Vivid map to help easily distinguish political boundaries. Numbered full-meridian and gyro assembly.

This is a well-made, accurate globe with a raised relief to represent topography like mountain ranges. My one complaint is that the color of the holder looks a little darker in the online picture as though it were an antique brass finish, and the actual color is bright golden (spray-painted steel?), so uniform in color that it almost looks plastic. There is also a small blue plastic disk at the top of the holder that isn't shown in the picture. This is still very good; as an object of decor, it's not quite what I wanted.. Mary. Boston, MA.

A solid hardwood base and die-cast semi-meridian provide the setting for this 9'' raised-relief globe. The collection has a walnut-finished base.

Love it, had to change its location due to a curious toddler. Elizabeth. Chicago, IL. Thu, 16 Apr 2020

An excellent choice for experienced travelers and seasoned stay-vacationers alike, this globe brings a world of style to any space. A must-have for desks, bookcases, and beyond, this design features a bright blue ocean and colorful continents. Better yet, raised-relief details give this piece added intricacy as they help illustrate geographical landscapes. This accent includes gyro-Matic mounting and a calibrated full-swing meridian for smooth operation, while a removable center post converts it from a floor globe to a table globe. Made in the USA.

Love this Alcot Hill world globe given as a gift to a dad who enjoys geography. The relief detail is so fun — you can feel the mountains and terrain. Beautiful colors and a perfect classic touch for any room.. Sicilian-maria. Brooklyn, NY. Wed, 27 May 2026
