A World Unlike Any Other

  • Designed & Made From Scratch

    Original artwork by Wendy Gold, with each globe made entirely by hand.

  • We Can Put Almost Anything on a Globe

    Our proprietary process transforms artwork, imagery, or ideas into a one-of-a-kind world.

  • Personalized for You

    Add a complimentary inscription around the North Pole. See image 5.

  • Made in the USA, Sustainably

    Handmade in California with recycled materials, non-toxic glues, and eco-conscious finishes.

Dive into the beauty and fragility of our oceans with the Endangered Ocean Species Globe—a stunning work of art that doubles as an educational tribute to marine life at risk. Vintage engravings and scientific illustrations of endangered sea creatures—including whales, sharks, sea turtles, corals, and reef fish—are thoughtfully collaged over a vibrant ocean-blue vintage world map.

Each species is carefully placed in its native habitat on the globe, offering a geographically accurate and visually striking representation. A custom map key accompanies the globe, identifying every featured species to deepen your connection to the art and the ocean.

Each globe is designed by artist and globe maker Wendy Gold, and sustainably made by hand in her USA based studio by artisan globe makers and professional wood workers, using eco-friendly materials and finishes.

Special design features include exquisite collage map art created from vintage maps, ephemera, engravings and illustrations, and our original globe design with a handcrafted wood base that allows the globe to fully spin around its axis. Because a World made by hand should tell your story, you can choose from four stained wooden base options, and add a complimentary personalized message of your words circling the North Pole. Not just a globe - your globe. (See image 5 for reference.)

• HAND PRESSED – Each globe is individually printed and hand-pressed to order in our California studio, ensuring one-of-a-kind craftsmanship in every piece.

• MAPPING OUR GLOBES – An eight-year journey led to the world’s only process for turning flat antique maps into handcrafted globes. While landforms remain true, no globe can ever be a perfect representation of the Earth. Expect slight imperfections—beautiful evidence of its handmade origin in today’s mass-produced world.

• ECO-FRIENDLY – When the world is your canvas, it should be treated with care. We craft our globes using recycled materials, non-toxic glues, and eco-conscious finishes—because the Earth isn’t just our subject, it’s our priority.
