Historical mini globe (replica)

In the 17th century, one of the most important cartographers of his time worked in Amsterdam, which was one of the world's leading trading cities. When you turn the globe, you can feel the magic of past voyages of discovery. Instead of modern ships, majestic sailing vessels crossed the oceans to reach foreign continents. This led to a wide variety of encounters with other cultures, languages and trade goods – spices, silk, precious metals and ivory were among the most sought-after commodities. In this way, the fascination of the old world can still be experienced today.
