19th CENTURY PAIR OF SMALL WORLD GLOBES

About the Item

Unique and fascinating pair of small globes, made with artisanal care by Italian manufacturers in the 19th century and hand painted on fine paper. These small globes are mounted on a solid brass base, equipped with three legs and a pedestal, making them stable. The first world map represents the terrestrial world with the continents, while the second world map instead depicts the celestial world, with the planets that make up the universe. The colors used are a vibrant green, a deep red and black, creating an eye-catching contrast on the paper. These two small globes present a unique peculiarity that blends with an innate elegance, offering a touch of refinement and an aura of curiosity to every environment in which they are found. Measurements: HxDM 14 x 12cm.
