Stainless Steel Globes
World globe sculptures with hand bent map projections tube frames and optional rotation tilt and lighting.
Overview
Our globes are hand crafted. The artist bends large sheets of stainless steel to a world map projection, which produces a globe with a real map rather than a printed graphic. Brass and aluminium globes can also be made.
Unpainted steel, brass and aluminium globes are all weather. Their satin finish resists scratches, and the texture catches light evenly. Mirror polished globes give a high reflection on both the map and the tube frame. Spray painted finishes are extremely tough and scratch resistant over a thick base putty, and electroplated colour is available on request.
We can also sandblast a painted world map onto a large steel ball if you want the globe as a solid sphere rather than an open frame.

Problems It Solves
- A printed map peels outdoors. A bent steel map is the structure, not a graphic on top of one.
- Globes read as generic. Rotation, correct tilt, LED and custom signage make it specific to the client.
- Scratching on a public piece. The satin finish resists marks and catches light evenly.
