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 listing is to book in for a globe filled with hand drawn and hand painted illustrations. No two globes will never be replicated the same –

Though we have a set suggestion in place for what illustrations are where – this is optional and as always we can design the globe as you would like it.

With your globe handmade and hand painted it would be impossible! Each one is made bespoke – your version or variation can be ordered in a variety of sizes, colours, styles of base. Size options are 22cm, 36cm, 50cm, 65cm, 80cm or 127cm diameter.

We have a 12cm Pocket Globe – this holds much fewer illustrations due to the small size – please enquire for more information or book in with a deposit and we will work with you to finalise which animals make the cut!

Choose which diameter globe you would like. The pricing reflects the globe having over 200 hand painted illustrations.

We do not recommend using Gagarin or Cassini colouring with this amount of illustrations. If you do choose our Gagarin or Cassini colouring, then the price will be higher and we may suggest some illustrations that are on land not be included or be moved slightly.

We are in the process of designing and making our first Animalia in 22cm sizing which will serve as a suggested example and may include less overall illustrations – however as with each and every globe you can adjust to your personal vision.

You are welcome to commission your own unique version with added illustrations like ships, monuments, your own house, your pets, or family portraits. We can also add travel routes and bespoke cartography like quotes, dates, names, or favourite cities highlighted. Additional illustrations and design work will be quoted on top. We will go through a mocking up and approval process with you ahead of finalising your choices on your globe.

The colouring shown here is Regency Blue – and can be paired with your choice of base (Walnut, Oak, London Plane Wood) with an added personalised engraving. Aluminium, Brass and Bronze are available at a higher price in some sizes.

If you would like us to send a gift card, please go ahead and book in for a deposit and we will confirm details of the gift card with you via email.
