Check out the Replogle Leather Expedition Desktop Globe This globe exemplifies an unorthodox spirit, with its map made of genuine leather. The sphere of this desktop globe is 12 inches in diameter but stands 20 inches tall with its dark, walnut-finish base included. The hardwood stand is topped off by an antique, brass-plated, die-cast meridian, which frames the orb. The semi-meridian features latitudinal degree markings. The beige, antique style ocean is accented by the golden brown hue of the planet's landmasses. The beautiful two-toned scheme, with its deep tones and complimentary shades, is embellished by the clear black font color that labels place names. Other cartographical information adorns the political map, like the latitudinal and longitudinal grid, along with intricately outlined compass roses, cartouches and legends. The otherwise smooth and circular Replogle globe is given a three dimensional texture by the raised relief. Earth's vast mountain ranges gently protrude from this model's surface, representing the varied topography of the planet. The Replogle Leather Expedition Desktop has the best of both worlds; it stands out from the pack with its original and striking design, while maintaining the perpetual stylishness of a classic globe.
