In 2003 the MOVA Globe, was created by Bill French in his basement in a small San Diego beach town, Cardiff-by-the-Sea. A physicist and inventor, Bill was inspired by his love for solar energy and magnetism. How does it work? Each globe has a transparent outer shell, made from carefully selected, high-quality acrylic, that remains stationary while an internal one rotates using advanced magnets for torque and solar cells to power the movement. No batteries. No wires. Just light is needed to power MOVA Globe.
Our basketball globe has an authentic texture along with dark orange color and black seams for a level of realism you have to see to believe. It's a slam dunk for sports fans. Pair with our crystal base for a custom award or gift suitable for coaches and players.
