Early twentieth-century globes typically feature lithographed paper gores applied to a sphere, reflecting the geopolitical boundaries and cartographic knowledge of their specific era of production.

Traditional globes were often constructed from a paper-mache or plaster sphere covered in segmented printed paper maps, mounted on turned wooden bases with metal meridian rings.

Authenticity is determined by examining the historical geopolitical boundaries shown on the map, the type of paper and ageing processes, and the manufacturing techniques used on the base and meridian.

A vintage globe adds an element of intellectual charm and classic academic character when placed on a study desk, a library bookshelf, or an executive console table.

Globes should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent the paper gores from fading and discolouring, and dusted gently with a dry, soft cloth without the use of liquids.
