From Impossible to Possible: Our 8-Year Journey to Reinvent the Globe

Some creations can’t be rushed. They demand patience, persistence, and vision. At Wendy Gold Studios, our newest line of handmade globes is exactly that—eight years in the making.

What began as curiosity became a journey of reinvention. Our goal was ambitious: to build a globe completely from scratch with eco-friendly materials, and to develop a process that could transform almost any 2D image into a true 3D sphere. Additionally, we didn't want to use equator tape, but wanted a perfect middle seam. Along the way, experts in science and math told us it couldn’t be done—but we refused to accept that. After years of experimentation, trial, and innovation, we proved it possible.

These aren’t just globes. They’re worlds. Each one is hand-pressed in our California studio, transforming flat artwork into dimensional creations filled with texture, depth, and soul. Geography, fantasy, storytelling, or pure art—the globe becomes your canvas.

Every piece carries authenticity: subtle variations, marks of the hand, and the unmistakable feel of something made with care—not mass produced.

This isn’t just a product launch—it’s a reinvention. Our vintage and pushpin globes make way for this next generation: sustainable, personal, and endlessly customizable.

After eight years of design and innovation, we’re finally ready to share them. The launch is just around the corner.

Stay tuned—you’ll soon be able to hold a piece of this journey in your own hands.
