The globe is fixed in the middle of a golden semi-circle graduated every 15 degrees, itself screwed onto a pedestal. The set can be rested on a metal foot at your convenience. The color of the oceans is in deep blue. These globes are made by hand with around thirty semi-precious natural stones (aventurine, mother-of-pearl, tortoiseshell, jasper, fluorite, lapis lazuli, white marble, malachite, onyx, mother-of-pearl, nephrite, tiger's eye, quartz, serpentine , turquoise, etc.). Each country is represented by a semi-precious stone. The gemstone globe requires dozens of hours of craftsmanship. The main stages of its manufacture are as follows: cutting of the stones into thin blades, cutting of the blades to the template of the Countries, flat transfer of the junctions, installation on the support (a hollow resin globe), verification, cutting and crimping meridians, surfacing, calligraphy of names, fixing lacquer baths, surface polishing and installation of axes and pivots for stand mounting. Globe like new in excellent condition.
