Handmade pieces still exist!

Peter Bellerby certainly likes to remind people that in today’s “disposable” society, there are still  handmade and individually crafted items.  While searching for the perfect 80th birthday present for his father, Mr. Bellerby decided to turn his passion into his business.  Based in London, Bellerby & Co Globemakers is a small company that prides itself in true craftsmanship!  Perfecting this art took a year and a half!  Bellerby’s hope is that when these globes are examined in 100 years, people will appreciate the beauty of the orbs as well as get an accurate reflection of the world during the time that globe was created.  How’s this for the perfect Holiday Present?
