The moldings are made into high-quality handcrafted frames - exclusively for our maps.

Why Maps?  We think of maps as windows to the world. They provide a context for understanding cultural, environmental, and physical patterns and relationships in the world. We like how maps provide spatial context and serve as a visual tool for learning. Traveling the world provides an opportunity to learn and experience the essence of Earth!
