Personalising your globe

With each globe made bespoke to order we can personalise in endless ways. This can be bespoke cartography, travel routes or hand drawn and hand painted illustrations. This is a process we will guide you through and explain in detail. Some styles of bases also include an engraving which is the perfect place for names, dates, or short sentiments.

More Information

This impressive 127cm diameter globe stands over 1.5m high, and its scale is breath-taking. The largest handmade world globes available for commission. Shown here with a Aluminium Albion base. Fitted with revolutionary bearings, this globe can spin in a fluid 360-degree rotating motion by hand.

This base can be made in the woods options at a lower price.

The deep hues are created with many watercolour washes painted by hand in our London studio. A truly individual product, exuding quality craftsmanship and skill, the Churchill would not look out of place in a grand home or workspace.
