Our MOVA Rotating Antique Terrestrial Globe White is a timeless beauty that displays every continent and ocean with clarity and contrast, featuring lines that trace the three voyages of Captain James Cook –a design element first created in 1790 by Giovanni Maria Cassini. The design also shows the United States which was very young at the time and not included on many contemporary maps. Gorgeous and captivating, this masterpiece of craftsmanship brings the past to life, creating a graceful and intricate rotational show for the office or home.
These handcrafted Mova Globes use hidden solar cells powered by ambient light, while the earth’s magnetic field provides the necessary torque, allowing the globe to rotate within a clear outer shell. Globes come with an elegant three-finger stand but work on any stand or surface (except for those made of iron or a metal alloy that can be magnetized).
