Globe on a Stand Porcelain Limoges Box

A world globe sits on its stand, a classic study piece for travelers and dreamers alike. The globe was painted by hand on porcelain in Limoges, France, as a Limoges box.

The Whole World in Your Hand

Globes on stands once sat in every library and schoolroom, inviting people to spin them and pick a place to visit someday. This little version brings back that sense of curiosity, a reminder of how wide the world is and how many places are waiting.

Around the World in Porcelain

• World globe on a stand
• Fits a travel, geography or study collection
• Pairs with suitcase, airplane and compass pieces

Bon Voyage and Well Traveled

This is a fitting present for a world traveler, a geography teacher, a graduate setting off to study abroad, or a retiree with a long list of places to see. It also suits a new travel agent, a pilot, or a family member who just took a job overseas. Set it on a desk in a home office, on a library shelf beside atlases, or on a bookcase with travel souvenirs. Each globe is painted by hand, so the continents and colors vary slightly from piece to piece.
