The Mackenzie
Spin the globe or touch the
sumptuous curves of the solid mahogany stand - it will be hard to keep your
hands off this handsome floor globe by Eureka Globes.
Designed for easy reference, it becomes a visual focal point in any
room with its graceful lines and rich, hand-rubbed finish.
Authentic
watercolored countries are labeled in the 18th century style of gently curved
type. Traditions of early
European mapmakers also inspired aged parchment oceans labeled in gold
LusterPrint(tm) ink with gilded coastal vignettes.
Embossed ships and an ornate cartouche represent the highest form of
cartographic design from the masters, made current to show the latest
geographic information worldwide. With
over 3000 easy to read place names, the longer you look, the more you will
see.
A full meridian
allows the globe to rotate 360 degrees and spin about the axis for complete
access to every part of the globe. Plated
in an antique brass finish to complement the globe, a hidden weight in the
South Pole returns the meridian to its correct position naturally.
The stand's exclusive
design incorporates graceful proportions of Dutch fine furniture craftsmanship
in each piece. Built from
plantation-grown mahogany, the solid wood stand is destined to be a treasured
heirloom.
The globe ball is
updateable; order a replacement ball through Eureka Globes for $50 plus
shipping.
