A Clear glass globe, approximately 3” in diameter, with frosted oceans and a flattened bottom for stability. Due to the tight curvature of the sphere and the small areas of unfrosted land masses suitable for artwork, etching areas are very restrictive. Accordingly, artwork should not include fine detail or text: the simpler and bolder the artwork, the better the etching result. If etching of detailed art is required, shifting the art to an optional etched base is highly recommended.
