norwegian globe on stand

Circa 1920, wonderful Norwegian adjustable globe on stand. The globe has been made on a satin birch telescopic stand, held in position by a brass rod which has the different degrees on this. Beneath this is a circular pole which is embodied into a large bulbous turned upright. There is a wooden screw for adjusting the height. The whole piece stands on a squat platform base with concave sides, and beneath this are stylish squat feet. Unusual piece and very stylish. (The globe has Constantinople rather than Istanbul, therefore is pre 1930.)

Georgian Antiques

Georgian Antiques was founded in 1978 by John Dixon's brother Padriac in a small shop at Jocks Lodge, Meadowbank in Edinburgh, with John joining the business after finishing college in 1981. The business grew so rapidly, they couldn't keep up with their inventory needs. Their goal has been to create a one-stop-shop where designers can complete an entire project from antique lighting to antique furniture to accessories. Scotland's largest antiques warehouse is located in a converted whiskey bond in historic Leith Edinburgh. With 50,000sq ft over five floors we offer a wide range of quality Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian furniture, as well as continental and small decorative items. Our stock is constantly changing.
