As a company our focus – and most of the globes we make – are “bespoke to order”. This means the customer is working with us to choose the size, base material and finish, colouring, and through the endless options of added personalisation to the map. Our diary books up many months ahead of time.
We often get requests for a quick turnaround time for last-minute gifts – so we now offer a few “Quick Delivery Options” in 22cm and 36cm diameter sizing – in the most popular colours. This also suits a customer who knows they do not want personalisation on their globe.
These “Quick Delivery Options” are a small amount of globes we make each month in a handful of the most popular colours. These globes cannot be customised with illustrations or text edits but you still have a choice of bases (Walnut, Oak or London Plane Wood) and the option of adding a personalised engraving to the base.
These globes always sellout month-to-month so we recommend you placing an order when you see a colour is available or getting in touch to ask what colours will be launching the next month.
If you do not see the exact colour that you would like available – or you do want to add personalisation to your globe – you can also book in with a 50% deposit on the size (you do not have to choose anything but the sizing and even that can change later) – and we will send a gift card for you to present to the recipient. This means you can either surprise them with a personalised globe or you can allow them to them ‘design their own globe’ – choosing the colour, base and personalising their own globe. This is a fun and unique experience to create something totally one of a kind and people love being part of the making process. The gift card includes a hand painted strip of the map which represents what is to come.
We ship worldwide from London, England. Our globes ship in a lovely ‘flight case’ – perfect for gift giving – and ensuring safe arrival.

22cm Albion and 36cm Albion globes spin 360 degrees in a fluid motion by hand and can be lifted from their bases. All of our globes are made to be touched and spun.
Colours available :
Blue Cassini : Bright and vibrant. The colourful land is shaded by country and balanced with a vibrant warm blue ocean. Example shown is 22cm on London Plane Wood and 36cm on Aluminium (priced higher).
Bespoke Blue Cassini : Available in 36cm diameter.
Prussian Blue : example shown is the 36cm sizing on Walnut.
Gagarin : One of our most detailed colours. Shown in 36cm sizing and on slim-line London Plane Wood. The globe is painted using reference to satellite imagery – an artistic rendition of Earth from space. The personalisation shown on the globe here in the UAE & Africa are examples and not on the ‘Quick Delivery’ globes.
Cool Blue : A cold blue ocean that gets darker as it nears to coast and a simple wash of colour on land in contrast. Modern and sleek – shown on a Walnut Standard and Oak Albion base. We have one available in 22cm sizing (as of August 2022).
Land-Shaded Cobalt : Bright vibrant and modern. The ocean gets lighter as it nears the coast and the land is shaded in contrast.
There is one 36cm available in this colouring.
The text in the ocean was unique to just this globe and not on quick delivery options. The base here is Walnut stained dark.
Mint Green : The 22cm is shown on a Coppa (solid Copper) base (available at a higher price / subject to availability). This globe has examples of personalisation which are not on the quick delivery globes – personalisation is only possible on commissions. The 36cm example is on a London Plane Wood base.
Mint Cassini : Bright and colourful land paired with a minty / seafoam green ocean.
Shown in 22cm diameter sizing – with added personalisation (not available with Quick Delivery Options).
Parchment Cassini : Colourful land and an off-white peachy ocean. This example is 36cm diameter – shown on a slimline London Plane Wood base.
Regency Blue : Similar to Glacial Blue but but with a warmed blue tone to the ocean. Example shown is 22cm on an Aluminium Albion base (note : this would be an additional charge) & with added personalisation (note: not available on any quick delivery option – only with a bespoke commission).
Charcoal : Modern greyscale colouring that gets darker as it nears the coast and has a sleek wash of light colour on land. Pairs well with every colour – recommended with London Plane Wood stained dark (ebonised).
Celestial : Our celestial globe features traditional representations of our heavenly bodies illustrated in exquisite detail. 88 hand drawn and hand painted constellations adorn our unique globe forming the perfect complement, and customary partner, to its terrestrial brother.
Shown in 22cm sizing – on a Walnut Standard base (thicker than the Albion style) –
