Reproduction
A magnificent 17th century Hondius terrestrial
globe reproduction. Hondius had the advantage over previous
globemakers, making use of the most recent
discoveries that transpired during voyages made on Dutch trade routes.
Mounted in an exotic ebonized wood stand with bronze semi-meridian.
Deserving of a special spot on a desk or table, this globe will inspire
conversation and add interest to any setting.
Reproduction globes are produced using original
charts that have been researched for their historical accuracy. Special
attention is taken to replicate the complex 'gravure' printing process
that was used during this time period.
