9" (23 cm.) Within a wooden box are contained all the pieces of the world, in curved edge wooden blocks that, when assembled, form a globe that can be displayed on its own wooden pedestal. Too, the globe dissembles in layers, with each layer forming a four-piece puzzle that tells about different sections of the world. The instructions for play are included on label inside the box. Very good/excellent condition. French, early 19th century. A very rare and charming toy.
