The soothing seafoam green color palette is the first thing people notice, and it offers a calming and serene tone. Aside from its aesthetic appeal, this terrestrial globe is also highlighted by its historical relevance. This interpretation of the antique globe depicts the three voyages taken by Captain James Cook in a design created by Giovanni Maria Cassini in 1790. A red ecliptic line is also present, showing the sun's position each day of the year.

Each globe combines vibrant artwork with patented MOVA technology, creating a flawless rotation without batteries or messy cords. Hidden solar cells use ambient natural or artificial light for power, while the earth’s magnetic field provides the necessary torque. These elements work seamlessly to power a 'whisper-quiet' mechanism, allowing the globe to rotate within its clear outer shell. Each piece is assembled with such precision, it appears the inner and outer layers are one – rotating without any outside power source.

A unique conversation-starter, a MOVA globe is a beautiful piece to add to your home or office decor, and a great gift!
