Engraved Brass Plate Map Nova Totius Terrarum Orbis Hondio 20.75 x 14.5 Totivs

  
Please be sure to check out our store The Appointed Broom Closet. Up for consideration is a very rare, vintage engraved brass plate wall map of the world as known in 1633 by Henry Hondius. The map measures 20 3/4" x 14 5/16" x 1/2.

The full name of the map is NOVA TOTIUS TERRARUM ORBIS GEOGRAPHICA AC HYDROGRAPHICA TABULA. The brass plate is mounted on what appears to be some type of resin or epoxy, is backed with felt, and has a heavy duty chain for hanging. This is heavy, roughly 8.5 lbs.

The patina on the brass plate is wonderful, yet in the pics it looks discolored, it really isn't, it is the way the lights reflect off of the area that sort of "bows" in slightly. The pictures really do not do this piece justice, when hanging it looks stunning. We had this in our library room for many years and was part of our personal collection, we are downsizing, so have been slowly letting things move on to the next caretaker.

We are offering a 14 day return on this item. If you cannot complete the checkout right away, please try again after a short while, it sometimes takes a bit to get to you. Please be sure to check out our other items.
