Antique Globes and Maps In the 21st century we have only the Universe left as an unknown territory. Back in the 16th century most of the world was undiscovered. Imagine the skill of ancient cartographers. Primitive tools, limited information... Antique globes are true historical documents from the age of discover and exploration.
Authentic Models is the renown leader in antique globes. No other company in the world offers authentic reproductions of similar quality or affordability.
Our globes are meticulously handcrafted using the complicated ‘gravure’ printing process that results in the sharpest details, lines and symbols, even on the smallest globe. Wrought iron stands are hand forged. Copper-plated printed gores are hand applied to a papier-mache core. All AM antique globes are printed from original charts.
