| Swedish 19th-century tellurian with a six-legged, cast-iron base. The sun is represented by a candle and reflective brass disc. A geared mechanism with a crank handle allows the moon to spin around the earth, which in turn spins around the sun. The three-inch terrestrial globe shows ocean currents, major cities and rivers. The candle sits on a metal disc with concentric circles representing the months of the year, seasons, zodiac signs. 16 inches tall. [GLOBE176] |
