School Maps & Globes Auction

Decorative and functional illuminated globe from Scan-Globe A/S, manufactured in Denmark in October 1993.

The globe features a Dutch-language political world map and is rendered in warm, aged map colors with decorative cartographic illustrations. The sphere rests on a round wooden base with an aluminum-colored central support and a metal meridian ring with a degree scale. When switched on, the globe is softly lit from the inside, making the map details beautifully visible.

The cartography is marked: “ 1993 Scan-Globe A/S Denmark – Made in Denmark – 10/93 – NL.” This documents the dating and Danish origin well. Through its combination of cartographic character, functional lighting, and sober Scandinavian design, this is a moodful object for a desk, study, library, or interior with a vintage look.

Decoratieve en functionele verlichte wereldbol van Scan-Globe A/S, vervaardigd in Denemarken in oktober 1993.

De globe heeft een Nederlandstalige politieke wereldkaart en is uitgevoerd in warme, verouderde kaartkleuren met decoratieve cartografische illustraties. De bol rust op een ronde houten voet met een aluminiumkleurige centrale staander en een metalen meridiaanring met gradenverdeling. Bij inschakeling wordt de globe sfeervol van binnenuit verlicht, waardoor de kaartdetails mooi zichtbaar worden.

De cartografie is gemerkt: “ 1993 Scan-Globe A/S Denmark – Made in Denmark – 10/93 – NL.” Daarmee is de datering en Deense herkomst goed gedocumenteerd. Door zijn combinatie van cartografisch karakter, functionele verlichting en sobere Scandinavische vormgeving is dit een sfeervol object voor bureau, studeerkamer, bibliotheek of interieur met vintage uitstraling.
