The cartographer Jodocus Hondius developed a world map to commemorate Sir Francis Drake's circumnavigation of the globe. Shortly thereafter he purchased the copperplates of fellow cartographer Mercator. Combining the two he published an updated globe in 1627. This Hondius World Globe uses his original charts to re-create it. Using a sophisticated gravure printing process the manufacturers are able to produce sharp detailed lines print and symbols on the globes surface with stunning results. In its elegant scrolling wrought iron floor stand this globe will add an element of sophistication and a piece of history to any room.
