37 inch Tall Full-cut Mother Of Pearl Gemstone Globe with Super Heavy Gold Stand: Home & Kitchen. The latitude and longitude lines are very thin ribbons of brass, embedded through the globe. This jeweler's-quality 24k Gold plated stand cradles an exquisite FULL-CUT Mother of Pearl ocean globe. Each ocean quadrant is a full cut of mother-of-pearl, unlike the less-expensive powdered shell that is sometimes used. This is spectacular demonstration of hand craftsmanship. This large and heavy full-cut mother of pearl gem stone globe is painstakingly assembled by hand using 37 different semi-precious stones from all over the world!The globe itself is 13 inch in diameter! It is mounted on a beautiful four-leg heavy gold finished floor high stand. At the middle of the stand, there is a very precise glass-topped integral compass to complement the globe. Overall, the dimensions of the piece are approximately 19L x 19W x 37H .Each country is inlaid from a different stone, and the stones are individually cut and ground to exacting interlocking shapes, polished and set into this exquisite piece of art with care and attention to adjacencies. The elements of the globe are created out of lapis lazule, mother of pearl, amethyst, African jade, tiger's eye, black jasper, turquoise, purple quartz, onyx, unakite, abalone and many other beautifully hued stones. Each globe requires ten individual steps to compose, and it takes more than 1000 hours of labor to complete!This gemstone globe is a wonderful, rich-looking addition to any study, living room or office.
