Why is this important?
Cartography that is printed on globes exported from China may show manipulated land borders and island territories that are not recognised by the United Nations and western countries. China subsidise globe manufacturing to make them cheaper to buy and this is used to increase China's 'soft power'.

We only supply globes with cartography that is printed in Europe or the United States which accurately reflect our world.

The Hastings Illuminated is a new favourite with our customers. The 12" (30 cm) diameter globe ball features digital printing for clarity. The map is up to date and has over 4,000 place names and pieces of information. The dual mapping design provides a view of the physical world when the globe is unlit, showing the desert, forest and ice-covered regions of the earth, while clear political boundaries appear when it is illuminated. The globe has a smooth surface with clever shading to portray the world's main mountain ranges. Lines of longitude and latitude are shown for additional reference.

This globe has been designed and is assembled in the UK using sustainable materials sourced from the UK and USA. It comes complete with bulb and a booklet on how to use, enjoy and care for your globe.
