LmaoArt like object very cool.
And it's clearly haunted. Note ghostly figure hovering over Stockholm.

That's it. While the countries look different, it's because they're made out of different stones. The fonts, etc are the same though. The "Polynesia" in slight cursive, for example.Amazon.com: Unique Art Since 1996 Brand 37" Tall Bahama Blue Pearl Swirl Ocean Floor Standing Gemstone World Globe with Tripod Silver Stand and 50 US State Stones : Toys & Games

I remember seeing those in malls. Maybe not mid 90s, maybe later? Don’t think it’s anything overly precious, but it’s neat all the same...While I don't doubt that it could be from the mid 90's from a mall...
The stand seems to be true brass, and together it weighs at least 100 lbs.
My mom is not a professional by any means, but she has been a "rock hound" her whole life, and she also believes all the stones in the globe are real.
Here are some more shots.

Ah, I didn't pick up that the countries are stones. No wonder it's beautiful but lacks a lot of detail.That's it. While the countries look different, it's because they're made out of different stones. The fonts, etc are the same though. The "Polynesia" in slight cursive, for example.

They sell these all over China you guys. Stower17 nailed it. Worth a few dollars. I would be surprised if the stand is pure brass...........
