The globe is mounted in an early 18th century wooden Italian-style stand, with a wooden meridian circle with the graticule in manuscript on one face, the horizon circle in hexagonal form, without papers, and with the horizon and turned wooden central support and base all lightly wormed.

These small Rossi globes are very rare; Stevenson records just two examples of the 1615 Rossi globe, both in private hands.

His work became renowned not only for his affinity for and abilities in cartography, but also for his innovation in the mounting and presentation of globes. His skills earned him the honored position  of \"Geographe ordinaire du Roi,\" and the invitation of Denis Diderot to contribute an essay to the first edition of Diderot's Encyclopedie. Along with his brother Martin, Didier de Vaugondy developed his cartographic skills in the workshop of his father Gilles (1688-1766), on the quai de l'Horloge near the Louvre. Here, they published maps and atlases as well as re-issues of the geographical work of his grandfather Nicolas Sanson's publications. By the time he was twenty, Didier de Vaugondy had been trained enough to have published his first pair of globes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis most famous accomplishment is the royal commission he received for a pair of globes for the use by Navy. These were the largest globes produced in France since those by Vincenzo Coronello\/Nolin. They were presented to the Royal Academy of Sciences towards the end of 1751. From 1784 until his death in 1786, Vaugondy worked with Nicolas Gabriel le Clerc and Dome Claude Bergevin on the project for a globe of eight pieds (102 inches) diameter. The globe is preserved at Versailles, although Vaugondy did not live to see it completed. Vaugondy's firm was taken over by Jean Fortin in the 1770s and then by Charles-François Delamarche.
