Description from the seller

Precious Globe made through inlay of Lapis Lazuli and other natural semi-precious stones.

Complete with compass on the base and a bronzeed metal supporting structure.

Overall base dimensions: about 26 cm in height × 24.5 cm in diameter, weight about 1.8 kg.

Each country has been inlaid with a different natural stone (where possible, the stone was chosen for its origin from that particular country); a sample of the workmanship and Italian artisanal and artistic ability!

A spectacular object to own absolutely, essential to enliven and give a touch of elegance and refinement to your home!
A great furnishing element for a formal living room or an elegant study!
It will attract the attention of all your guests.

In good condition, it shows a few signs from past use and the structure is slightly scratched and at some points discolored (please refer to the photos for more details on the object’s condition).

N.B. the wine bottle is photographed for demonstration purposes only; it is not included with this lot and will not be shipped.

Photos are an integral part of the description.

N.B. original colors may appear slightly different from the photos due to the different ways colors are displayed on various monitors or screens used.

The item will be carefully boxed to protect it during shipment (the packaging will be sizable in dimensions and weight – shipping costs have been calculated based on these criteria).

Please check the shipping prices before proceeding with bids; these prices are set on a flat-rate basis according to the estimated future shipping cost and packaging cost. By placing a bid you agree to accept the shipping costs as stated in the listing.
N.B. if the shipping cost ends up higher than the amount estimated and stated here, we reserve the right to request the difference to be paid in order to ship."}
