At just three- and six-inches in diameter, our Earthball spheres add a touch of elegance to any desk or tabletop. Better still, they put the world within easy reach.

Tastefully colored land masses, major cities, latitude and longitude markings, major bodies of water, and more are all artfully silk-screened on the inside of the sphere for protection.

Available in Crystle, Blue Pearl, Silver, Blue/Green, and Onyx. The three-inch sphere is available on a clear acrylic ring base. With the six-inch model select either the sculptured base or the stylish pedestal base

Here's the next-best thing to taking a ride on the space shuttle. Starship Earth II will help you explore the universe that surrounds us - from the many constellations in our heavens, to the movements of the Earth, Sun, and stars, the secrets of navigation, and much more.

A beautiful work of art, as well as a superb learning/teaching tool, the Starship Earth II is a three-dimensional star atlas for the unaided eye. It is a perfect companion to increase your enjoyment of star gazing with your binoculars or telescope as well.

The impressive transparent sixteen-inch diameter outer sphere of the Starship Earth II displays updated and improved data from Sky Catalogue 2000.0, all eighty-eight constellations and more than 1,100 naked-eye stars, plus many prominent deep-sky objects against a precision grid of Right Ascension and Declination lines. The Milky Way and Magellanic Clouds are shown in a wispy translucent blue, and deep sky objects are keyed to type. They're all accurately hand silk-screened on the sphere's interior surface for long lasting protection. Stars are identified by name, Greek letter designations, brightness, from first to fifth magnitude, and distance from the earth in light years. The outer sphere also highlights astral equivalents used to locate stars. An easy three-step setting allows you to reproduce the Earth, Sun, and star movements for any time, date, and location in the world.

Understand more about how the Sun rises and sets, and how the seasons change; surrounding the five-inch diameter inner Earthsphere is a fully adjustable horizon ring to help you visualize the horizon for any location on the planet.

Hand crafted of museum-quality acrylic, this sixteen-inch sphere rests on a sculptured acrylic desktop stand or an acrylic tripod floor stand. Includes a forty-eight page instruction book featuring new constellation, first magnitude star, double and multiple star, and deep-sky showpiece tables, along with an activity section, written by the internationally renowned astronomy expert George Lovi. You'll also receive a Certificate if Authenticity signed and dated by the craftsman who hand-fashioned your spectacular model of Earth in space.

Starship Earth II is available with this acrylic tripod floorstand with an overall height of thirty-eight inches. Also available is the dramatic thirty-inch diameter model with a hand cut and polished acrylic floorstand (overall height is forty-nine inches - see inset photograph) Perfect for large rooms and classroom presentations.

Our smallest three-inch sphere makes an elegant Christmasphere ornament. Each sphere is hand silk-screened on the interior surface for long-lasting beauty. Our process of blowing each sphere gives you the look of glass with the strength and durability of acrylic.

The Gold Christmasphere ornament features exquisite metallic-gold land masses with silver latitude and longitude markings. The Red & Green Christmasphere presents festive red and green land masses, white names, and gold latitude and longitude markings. This model is an accurate reference tool, showing the names of over one-hundred cities, continents, bodies of water, and more. The Crystle Christmasphere has translucent white land masses and longitude and latitude markings, silk-screened to look like hand etching. Christmaspheres are also available in Blue Pearl, Silver, Blue Green, Onyx and Starball styles.

Each Christmasphere comes complete with an elegant gold cord and a matching gold cap. Elegant acrylic display stands (shown) are also available.

Here's another unique creation originated by Artline Globes. Our Plant-It-Earth spheres are perfect for creating your own personal terrarium. These hand-sculpted transparent spheres are elegantly silk-screened with the Earth's continents in translucent white to let the beauty of your plants show through. Use your own live plants and miniatures to express your creativity; fill the lower hemisphere with water and float flowers for your own special table decoration, or fill it with ice and chill your favorite wine or champagne.

For a unique and creative gift, fill the sphere with a favorite candy like Earth Chocolates pictured here in the six-inch sphere. These are fine quality chocolate balls, wrapped in a colorful foil printed with a map of the world. We offer these custom chocolates in twelve-ounce bags - just enough to fill a six-inch sphere.

All Plant-It-Earth spheres are crafted of museum-quality cast acrylic to give the appearance of fine crystal. Included are a signed and dated Certificate of Authenticity, helpful instructions for planting, and a clear base to display your creation.

Choose from three-, six-, eight-, twelve-, and sixteen-inch diameter spheres.
