Provoke the imagination in new ways. This illuminated globe shows stars, constellations and nebulae when not lit. Turn the light on and witness the luminous beauty of approximately 88 celestial images. Features metal black base and pewter semi-meridian.

Really fun purchase and great educational tool. The only issue I have is that it came with a couple minor scratches already on it, which for $90, is not acceptable; however my kids like it so much, I didn't think it worth the energy to return it (I'm thinking with a 4 & 7 year old, it will receive other scratches anyway!). Sarah. Savannah, GA. Sat Jan 10 2015

Since ancient times, the column has stood as a functional and decorative standard. This all-metal globe base is reminiscent of that form, yet crafted to reflect modern design. History, architecture, and culture come together in a unique way with this 16'' antique ocean globe.

It arrived very fast, in just 3 days. The stand is very heavy and you have to be careful when moving the globe itself. It comes easily off the rockers that it rests on. I wished I had ordered the illuminated globe, but this one is beautiful none the less. Ordered it for hubby for his birthday and he is pleased with it.. Diana. Jackson, MI. Tue Sep 22 2020

The combination of progressive design, artistic angles, and metal floor stand with a 16'' blue ocean globe and pewter finished die-cast meridian gives the Trafalgar an air of sophistication.

Bought as a gift for my husband. He really enjoys it. Pros - Larger globe size 16"; Easy to view the entire globe-as it rotates fully on the stand; sturdy stand. Cons - Some of the individual segments of the map are slightly off where they meet. Worst one is in photo. Considered returning the globe, but he felt it was not bad enough to return.. Deborah. Fort Myers, FL. Tue Jan 04 2022

A visually compelling globe to accompany an elegant stand. A wood ring with cherry finish supported by a wrought iron stand in black matte make this piece one of a kind.

This blue-ocean with its impressive 16'' globe and solid hardwood stand, offers exceptional form and function. Additional features include an illuminated globe ball and full die-cast numbered meridian.

This is a nice globe and stand but there is no cord routing and the switch is a cheap inline cord switch that you sometimes see used with cheap lamps. The cord with switch just hangs down from the globe. The illustration does not show this.. Kuskokwim. Baker City, Oregon. Sun Dec 05 2010

I was very disappointed with the quality of this item. It doesn't look rich and well made. I am considering returning it. I'm looking for a worthy replacement before the end of the year.
