Vintage maps, used as decoration, can be very attractive in any interior. They become a focal point in any room. The oldest ones are the most interesting as the names of the countries and some borders may have changed since then! They are very rare, often unique so by the way really valuable in any collection.

Most of the time people put them in a bedroom, but you can also fit them in any living room, dining room or hallway.

    • Hello Charles,

      Thank you for contacting me.
      Those pull down maps are really hard to find and in good shape.
      Unfortunately I don’t have any right now but if I source one in France I will come back to you!
      Have a lovely day, good luck for your search,
      Kind Regards,

      Helen
