AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful large antique desk globe with a 33 cm diameter, manufactured by Ernst Schotte in Berlin in the late 1860s.
The Ernst Schotte publishing house was founded in 1855 and began around 1863 to manufacture globes.
Schotte's globes are known for their very detailed and highly aesthetic map sheets. Additionally, the wooden stands are very beautiful and gracefully turned.
Schotte globes are highly sought-after and valuable objects, and especially an early edition like this is hard to find, particularly in this condition with such fresh colors.
The globe is made of pressed papier-mâché and clad with a map sheet consisting of 12 segments that run all the way to the axis, i.e., without pasted-on polar circles.
A unique opportunity to acquire a beautiful Schotte globe!
