Description from the seller
Beautiful illuminated glass globe with a 20 cm diameter from the 1930s-40s, made by Perrina, Paris. The globe is in completely original condition, with the original wiring, the original maker's label, the original light bulb, and even the original packaging for the bulb. The globe is made of glass and is covered with a very aesthetic map image. It sits on a painted brass stand. Perrina was, together with Forest and Thomas, one of the pioneers in making glass illuminated globes in France during the first half of the 20th century. The globe and the stand are in good condition with here and there a few small spots and scratches. The lighting is in working order, however it is advisable to check the wiring carefully due to its age. A unique chance for both the experienced globe collector and the collector of rare vintage material. Please study the photos carefully; they form an important part of the description.
