This antique-style globe is beautifully painted with tan colored oceans and and continents in earthtones of green and brown. It appears to be on a rotating axis, but actually opens up in the center. The bottom is tan porcelain with an attractive metal center. The clasp is the planet Saturn.
I'm not sure I would use it for current day navigation, as it appears the equator goes through Texas and Florida! This box is marked
as shown and measures
3" h x 2" w x 1¾" d.
Every genuine Limoges box is an individual, hand crafted
