AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful classic table globe made of wood and papier-mâché. Manufactured in 1963 by the firm Donati Societas from Milan (Italy).

The globe is a tribute to cartographer Abraham Ortelius, recognized as the creator of the first modern atlas and of great influence on mapmakers of the 17th century.

The object consists of a wooden frame and a paper-mâché globe. The frame is supported by three legs. On the ring of the frame are the twelve signs of the zodiac. Surrounding the globe — which features a reproduction of a historical Latin world map — is a graduated circle with the longitudes and the various climate zones marked on it.

The object is 22cm tall. The wooden stand is 14cm tall, and the diameter of the outer ring is 20cm. The globe itself has a diameter of 13cm. The object weighs approximately 320 grams.

The globe is in good condition, with light signs of use/wear. Please view the photos for a good impression.
