Replogle Hexagon Frank Lloyd Wright Desktop Globe - 12 Inch

The unorthodox perspective of the great American architect is realized in the Replogle Hexagon Frank Lloyd Wright Desktop Globe. Adapted from the iconic designer's series of hexagonal metal furniture he developed for the H. C. Price building in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, the original composition is updated to hold Replogle's globe. The 12 inch desktop globe is held 20 inches high by its distinctive base. The stand features a triangular shaped base that props up three upward arching arms, which in turn support a hexagonal hardwood cradle. Inside the frame is a full, 360 degree brass meridian, adorned with latitudinal markings. The sphere swivels freely in the gimbal-mounted construction.

The clever reworking of Wright's design in the unit's base is complimented by the tried and true Replogle globe. The antique style political map is completely up-to-date in spite of its nostalgic design. The parchment-colored oceans are accented by the multihued mosaic of the Earth's landmasses. Thousands of contemporary place names abound on the map, adding to world globe's wealth of geographical splendor. The unusual design of the Replogle Hexagon Frank Lloyd Wright Desktop Globe makes it a sophisticated addition to your office or home. The captivating design channels the spirit of the legendary architect, and when matched with Replogle's beautiful world globe, the combination is exhilarating.
