Antique French terrestrial globe – Chrome Art Deco base – Circa 1930 – Cart

Rare small antique French globe, circa 1928-1934, mounted on its original Art Deco chrome metal base. Height 17 cm, diameter 12 cm. The lithographed map in French is an exceptional historical document: it features Persia (renamed Iran in 1935), Italian Libya, Belgian Congo, French West Africa, French Indochina… a snapshot of the colonial world of the 1930s, before the upheavals of the Second World War. The sphere, made of lithographed paper in soft tones — yellows, celadon greens, pale pinks — rests on an elegant circular chrome base with a half-moon joint, typical of the Art Deco style. An object at the intersection of geography, history, and design. ✦ Total height: 17 cm ✦ Sphere diameter: 12 cm ✦ French cartography ✦ Original Art Deco chrome metal base ✦ Used condition — patina and slight wear consistent with age.
