Terrestrial globes have been used since the sixteenth century as scientific instruments and symbols of knowledge, transitioning into decorative objects for studies and libraries during the Victorian and Edwardian eras.

Antique globes typically feature a paper gores map applied to a plaster or composition sphere, mounted on a metal meridian ring and supported by a cast iron, brass, or wooden stand.

The age of a globe can be identified by examining the geopolitical boundaries, colonial names, and trade routes printed on the cartography, as well as the manufacturing techniques of the base and gores.

An antique globe adds a layer of historical interest and scholarly charm when placed on a desk, bookshelf, or side table within a study, office, or living room setting.

Antique globes should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent the paper gores and colours from fading, and cleaned only with a dry, soft microfiber cloth to avoid moisture damage.
