Not made in China 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.
With striking black and silver colours and a premium "soft touch" globe ball, the Truro globe is a beautiful piece for the modern home. Raised mountain ranges are accentuated by the silky texture of the "soft touch" surface. The high contrast mapping shows over 4000 place names with clarity. The steel anodised base and ring are weighted for added stability.
This globe is made in Corby, Northamptonshire, in the heart of the UK, using recycled and recyclable materials sourced from the UK and USA and comes complete with a booklet on how to use, enjoy and care for your globe.
