The San Marcos world globe is a part of the Frank Lloyd
Wright Collection Globes.
In 1928, Frank Lloyd Wright began creating a major remodeling project of the existing resort, the San Marcos in the Desert Hotel on the outskirts of Phoenix. The project was never completed due to the 1929 stock market crash, but the building design and the interior renderings contain a variety of interesting furniture and decorative features. Globe Model # 31819

Made in USA|
The adapted stand of the San Marcos world globe showcases the 60 degree angled legs and the hexagonal
top of a small accent table. It was designed for the totally new special
Dining Pavilion, bordered by the garden terraces of the San Marcos in
the Desert Hotel, Chandler, Arizona. (Project revised 1936).
San Marcos desk globe displays individual U.S. states. Full-swing Meridian Antique style brass-plated die-cast meridian (ring supporting the globe) allows the ball to be turned 360° for easy access to thousands of points of interest from any possible angle. The 12" diameter fully up-to-date globe revolves within the meridian ring (East/West), and the meridian swings within the stand (North/South).
Raised Relief To better emphasize the mountainous areas of the world - there are ‘bumps’ on some areas of the globe. They are called raised relief. They are there so that you can ‘SEE & FEEL’ the mountains - although their actual height on the globe does not have any relationship to the true relative heights of the mountain ranges.
