The base is solid wood, made using a wooden lathe. The supports are metal, brass-plated. It spins smoothly. The top gold-colored part is made of brass-plated metal. The part for measuring time differences is made of resin. A 30cm (11-inch) globe is too large and takes up a lot of space, but this Lincoln is 23cm (9 inches) and can be displayed neatly on a desk. I think it's the globe with the most beautiful balance. The English version of the Lincoln is rare. Made in USA Diameter: 9 inches, 230mm Height: 380mm Missing parts: None Fading: Slight (as shown in the photo) *Because it is a large item, shipping is included. It is a rare model in good condition, production has ended, and there is no stock at the distributor, so it is priced slightly higher than other models. *The same product on the official website and Rakuten was out of stock and could not be purchased. *For those who are deciding between the Japanese and English versions, Replogle's English version has more information, so the English version is recommended.
