Versus Noir 60cm Floor Globe

The Versus Floor Globe with 60cm Noir Ocean Globe Ball captures the essence of Italian style and design and is the perfect globe to make a statement in any contemporary room. This Noir model could be seen as a piece of art just as much as it is a world globe. Pictures can’t possibly convey the finer details or the presence that this globe gives to the room it inhabits.

Versus globes are almost entirely made by hand and are done so in very small numbers. Perhaps 30 or less are made for the world each year. Styles are also updated frequently making each Versus globe a rare and handmade piece of art.

The map, updated by the team of cartographers and designers at Zoffoli in Italy, boasts stunning paint brush-like colour details. The Noir colour is similar to that of faded newspaper ink that looks to have been brushed onto the paper surface. The detail in terms of place names has been kept minimal as to not detract from the beauty of the globe’s surface. The base is made from black painted steel and walnut hardwood pillars. The black painted aluminium meridian allows a 360° exploration of the sphere which rotates on two axes.

A special feature of this globe is that it shows country names in their spoken language, as well as in English. For example Italia and Italy are mentioned.
