A Gemstone Globe Brings The World To You

By Gayla L. Mayer


Similar to the thrill that Christopher Columbus, and many of the early explorers experienced, setting sail across uncharted oceans is exhilarating. For the lot of us, such a journey would be unlikely; but now, a Gemstone Globe brings the world to you.

For those of us who have always loved geography, this is quite a unique gem. When I was much younger, I always loved to read about the wonders of the world including faraway lands, empires, oceans and seas. Or how the early explorers set out across the oceans in search of new worlds-even when they weren't certain if the world was flat!

Seriously; would you have set sail across the vast ocean during the 15th century? Come to think about it, I don't think that such a trip would have been on the top of my to-do list. And when you start thinking about it to a greater extent, there were many courageous people on these voyages. Map makers and sailors were needed to document the voyage and keep accurate records of these magnificent and groundbreaking explorations.

The feeling must have been exhilarating when one of them spotted a brand new world, peaking over the horizon. Many of the sailors must have experienced a gamut of emotions, including joy, and excitement mixed in with the feelings of uncertainty that were sure to follow. These voyages were very lengthy with many spanning the course of several years.

Lucky for you, your globe-trotting voyage can be had with the spin of a globe. Now, a hand-crafted globe can take you on an exclusive and lively excursion to hemispheres on the other side of the world.

And remember not to keep the fun, excitement and sense of adventure all to yourself. A hand-crafted Gemstone World Globe is the ideal gift (birthday or holiday) for a good number of your family members or close friends. The entrepreneur will be attracted to a globe that is mounted on an arch and base, which can easily rest atop a desk or cabinet. Bookworms would get a thrill out of a free-standing globe that can be used to add a measure of personality and distinction to an in-home library/study.

When the world outside is calling your name, a Gemstone Globe will help you answer this adventurous call-and you never have to leave the comfort and privacy of your own home. I think about what Amerigo Vespucci, and many of the famed explorers, astrologers, and cartographers would make of our present-day understanding and knowledge of the earth and the celestial universe. Discover onward!
