Each border and label has been carefully researched to provide the most accurate and current information possible. Hand-crafted Designer Stands
Each stand is designed to complement but not overpower the globe. All stands are
hand-finished and paired with coordinated, plated (not spray painted) meridians. Full rotating meridians allow the globe to pivot 360 degrees in addition to full
rotation about the poles. A semi-meridian spins 360 degrees about the poles
only, minimizing visual interference while retaining an articulated scale in
degrees. An axis arm eliminates the meridian entirely but permits full 360
rotation about the polar axis. Polar caps are made of metal, not plastic.
