Globe made of iron and glass in the style of a Victorian hot-house

Globe made out of iron and glass in the style of a Victorian hot-house. This is a replica of a type of cloche that became very fashionable at the end of the 19th century to display precious objects. The original cloches are often rather high and narrow, this one is much wider so it can be used as a small 'cabinet de curiosités'.

Size: hight around 28 cm, diameter foot 25 cm
