Most customers find the globe beautiful and an excellent gift choice, especially for teachers, but many mention issues with the engraving being too light, small, or hard to read.
I purchased this item as a gift. The globe is beautiful a little smaller than what I thought but still a good size. The engraving is really light. You have to hold it close to see what it says. I would have liked it to be darker. For this reason I give it 4 stars.
The globe is beautiful, however the plate on the front where you can put your message it silver and the writing it silver. Its VERY hard to see the message since its silver on silver, the graving is not deep and the writing is not big. I had to keep moving it around just to see what I wrote. In the picture the plate looks white. If I would have know this I probably would have went with a different gift.
The globe is adorable and just as seen. The engraving is so light you can barely read it. Contacted customer service and they said that is how it is suppose to be. Very disappointed. Unable to give as gift.
