Blue Semi Precious Stone World Globe Copper Color Base Cheetah Footed Gemstone

Description

Blue Semi Precious Stone World Globe Copper Color Base Cheetah Footed Gemstone.
The different elements of the globe are created out of Lapis Lazuli, Mother of Pearl, Amethyst, African Jade, Tiger’s Eye, Jasper, Turquoise, Purple Quartz, Onyx, Unakite, Abalone, Green Marble and many other beautifully hued and richly veined stones. This is made with Semi-Precious Gemstones from all over the world. Heavy zinc alloy metal mix frame with copper tone, never rusts! The Globe is covered with acrylic resin to protect and seal the stones.
This Globe is in overall great condition with no missing stones or damage. There is a small rub spot on the base near the center point. Please see pictures as I have circled this for you. It does have what I call a cheetah base. There are three cheetah stretchers at the bottom attaching the paws to form the base for the globe to rotate in. This does not come with a compass. The globe is pretty stunning to look at!

About me:
I graduated with a Bachelor's in Interior Design in '97. I worked in the field for 20 years successfully until having twins with medical issues. This necessitated my transition to a different kind of work and staying home with them. Recently, I have reignited my passion for design with my (mostly) vintage and antiques eBay business. I'm very small but I get to handle all aspects and make sure my customers are happy. I find it very fulfilling to find hidden treasures for others to enjoy! In a strange way, it keeps me in touch with my design roots and helps make a little money to participate in paying bills for my family. Thank you so much for looking and for your purchase, I really appreciate you!
