Lapis Lazuli Ocean 13-inch Gemstone Globe
This elegant, eye-catching gemstone globe will add elegance to any setting.
Its 13-inch diameter is intricately assembled by hand using 37 different semiprecious stones from around the world. Mounted on a handsome polished bronze stand (choose from quad or tripod designs), its rich, blue lapis lazuli ocean background and classic trimline compass complement the stunning land masses of your globe.
Each country is inlaid with a different, individually cut stone (including lapis lazuli, mother-of-pearl, amethyst, African jade, tiger eye, jasper, turquoise, purple quartz, onyx, unakite, and abalone) that has been polished and set into this exquisite piece of practical art. The latitude and longitude lines are crafted of very thin ribbons of brass, embedded through the globe. A certificate of authenticity is included, adding to the collectable value.
Hand-lacquered to give a high luster, this globe is the definition of fine office or home decor. It makes the ultimate gift for any world traveler, as well as a worldly present for map or globe collectors and geography buffs.

Customer Reviews
The globe was a gift for my husband's birthday and is even better than I hoped. The picture and description can't do it justice. It's beautiful, well made and the tripod base is very sturdy. It came packed so well that he only had to lift it out of the box - no assembly required. This globe was a special and unique gift and we're both very pleased with how it looks in the office. A definite A+ purchase!
I ordered this globe for my father who hss been to 100 countries, but it was so beautiful that I may get one for myself! It came in perfect condition, the lapis lazuli ocean and the jeweled countries were to die for! This is no ordinary globe--it's llike a giant jewel. No assembly, nothing bent or broken--just the most stunning gift I've ever seen. Now my sister wants one, also. AND the overnight shipping really was overnight. My dad was as thrilled as I was!
I was totally shocked at the beautiful workmenship in this product. When my daughter & son-in-law opened it for their Christmas gift, they were immediately floored at the beauty and detail work of this globe. What a deal!! If you want to buy a real eyecatching gift for youself or someone else, rush out and buy this. Trust me. You will not be disappointed.

It is amazing. I gave it to my Father who has everything, and when I visited his House for Thanksgiving, he took me in his office and showed it to me--incredible. Much more than I expected. Seems it should cost $2000.
