Award-winning
mapmakers at Eureka Cartography have taken on the World, announcing ten new and exclusive
globe designs. The Masterpiece Collection from Eureka Globes represents the finest map
designs available in 12" diameter globes for desktops, tabletops and floor stands.
Globes are
hot items in the gift, stationary, home and office furnishings markets, due to increased
geographical awareness and internationalization. No other type of map evokes the same
interest and appeal as a beautiful globe. Once a symbol of wealth, power and knowledge,
globes today appeal to almost everyone.
Each globe
in the Masterpiece Collection by Eureka Globes has been carefully designed to combine the
most accurate geographic information with the finest cartographic styles for unsurpassed
quality. Our uncompromising attention to detail and legibility produces globes with superb
reference value and aesthetic appeal.
Heirloom
quality globes require special printing to reproduce the fine linework, delicate gilt
elements and subtle tones on land and water. Eureka is the first globe maker to use Luster
Print inks to emulate the gold, copper and silver leaf hand-applied by master
cartographers as decorative embellishments. Each globe is then embossed to add definition
to the cartouches, compass roses and ships.
The finest
materials and designs have been used in each stand to match the quality of our globes. And
each stand is a Eureka Globe exclusive. For home or office, nothing matches the
eye-catching and fascinating image of a finely crafted world globe.
Eureka
Cartography designs and produces exceptional maps, atlases and globes. Every cartographer
at Eureka has been formally trained in geography, graphic design, typography and
lithography. Our work appears in printed maps, books, magazines, games, CD-ROM atlases and
web sites. The company has received numerous awards for excellence from the American
Cartographic Association.
