About us

We are the globe experts - floor globes, tabletop globes, desk globes, and educational globes - we have them all, even globe bars! At prices to suit most budgets.

Globes can be quite hard to find in shops. When walking around your local town centre you might happen across a couple of kid’s globes in a shop window but nothing much more. People would be forgiven for not knowing that nice furniture accessory globes existed at all, and that globes are just for schools and kids.

However. Globes are being seen more and more on TV and in films nowadays. And not only in historical dramas. They have featured on programmes as diverse as Jonathan Creek, Sherlock, Strictly Come Dancing 2015, Top Gear, Alan Carr, Chatty Man and the BBC News. Did you know that these globes can be bought from us?

Globes are a truly special gift that should last a lifetime. Even if the political world changes, how fascinating to have a snapshot in time recorded and in your home? We understand that globes are not mobile phones! – people don’t go out and buy the latest, updated model on an annual basis. So we aim to help you to buy the best gift, either to yourself or for someone special, that you possibly can, that will be enjoyed for years to come.

With this in mind in 2005 we decided to use the growing popularity of the internet to show anyone who looked just how wide a variety of globes are available for them to buy and just how special they can be. We pride ourselves on selecting only the best models from the world’s finest manufacturers so that our customers have the best possible choice of globes. We source products from Italy, America, Germany and even some items which are designed and made in the UK using British manufactured components.

Being situated in Corby, Northamptonshire, we are perfectly placed for distribution all over the UK and Europe with our courier hub only 50 miles away in Birmingham. Over the years we have worked with our courier company to help provide the best possible service to our customers wherever they are situated. We have worked together to utilise the latest technologies, as they have come along, such as GPS tracking, to provide an even greater customer experience than we could ever have dreamed of when we first started, 11 years ago. We don’t stand still. We were at the vanguard of online selling in 2005, when Google was only being murmered about, and we are constantly striving to remain as the first place customers visit when looking for their globes.

Sometimes ordering from a website can seem impersonal. There’s often no one to speak to and/or no clear landline telephone number to call. We decided from our first day to be different. We put our landline telephone number in bold, visible on every page of the website so that customers can call us with any questions they might have, or to place their order. Our sales and support staff are entirely based here in Corby and are available during office hours.

We also aim to provide as much information as possible about each product along with the best possible photography and a specification column so that our customers have as little uncertainty as possible about our products.

When you place your order, you’ll get a confirmation email from us letting you know that everything has been received at our end and that we are working on your order. If your item is sent out by couriers (as opposed to Royal Mail) they will contact you via email and/ or mobile telephone (text message) letting you know that they have your parcel. They will also give you a one hour delivery window on the day of delivery. We are now able to offer Saturday and Sunday deliveries, at a small extra cost. So, if weekdays are a problem for you and you can’t ask a neighbour or get your globe from a parcel station, you can nominate a weekend day.

At JustGlobes we are committed to giving excellent service. Our sales and support staff carry over 10 years combined knowledge of our products and are passionate about giving the best possible experience to each customer. We always welcome feedback on service and practises and are constantly looking for new ways to improve the shopping experience for our customers.

Thank you for shopping with us.
