Nauticalia

These "globe bars" are replicas of originals from the 17th century, when rich gentlemen liked to discuss the world - and perhaps their next voyage of discovery - over a glass or two of something special. Now difficult to find (and very unusual), they are beautiful centrepieces that will always be a talking point, whether being used to served drinks or not. The maps, with their delightful illustrations of sea monsters, landmarks and foreign peoples, are fascinating and reveal a great deal about the thinking of the time. Please be careful though, as mid-1600's positioning errors are reproduced too (not to be used for reference or navigation)! Some simple self-assembly required, glasses and bottles not supplied. 

LARGE FREESTANDING GLOBE BAR has space for a dozen glasses and four bottles inside, with more bottle storage between the elegant turned hardwood legs. Height 38", overall diameter 26".
