Queen Anne Globe, 16-inch Diameter, Illuminated

The Queen Anne Floor Globe is a radiant testament to the high craftsmanship of the American made Replogle units. Based on an 18th century design style popular in both America and Europe, the handsome floor globe carries a distinguished quality. The 16 inch globe is held 32 inches tall by the four legged cherry-finish hardwood base. The arched legs support a 360 degree horizontal hardwood ring that cradles the cast meridian. The globe is gimbal mounted, meaning that it can be rotated to inspect the world even closer. The Queen Anne has a political antique ocean map. Replogle's delicately lettered typeface labels the abundance of place names. Nostalgic map flourishes like elegantly colored compass roses, cartouches and legends populate this world globe. Additionally, the parchment color of the oceans is highlighted by the thoughtfully arranged hues of the countries. This illuminated floor globe comes to life with the flip of a switch. The internal light bulb bursts forth, sending its luminous rays into the room. With the light on, warm light from the antique political map radiate outwards from the world globe in earthy tones. Replogle's legendary craftsmanship and respected geography are epitomized in the Queen Anne Floor Globe. This classy model is a cherished edition to the home. The perfect spot in a library, study, living room or office would make this alluring work the centerpiece of any decor.
