When Peter Bellerby struggled to source a globe for his father’s 80th birthday, he was determined to restore traditional globe-making. From finessing the art of goring (applying the map), to base production, Bellerby & Co doesn’t miss a detail. Every continent and country is meticulously hand-painted with watercolours for a unique finish, justifying its two Queens Awards.
