From their website: durable plaster, resins, grp (the materials for the globes themselves; wood, brass, etc. are for the stand). I'm assuming the resins are inorganic. Grp = fiber reinforced plastics. Their website has videos showing how the globes are made. My links get deleted here, do a search for Bellerby and Co. Globemakers.

@motherlandbot6837

The small globes have a plaster body. Larger globes are made from "composite materials", which might mean plaster with a resin shell or support. The globes are all very heavy for their size, so they aren't hollow fiberglass or resin spheres.

He said the issue is getting a flat map to fit a globe, but the earth is round. Flat map makers have the issue of making things fairly accurate when their shape is different from the original. Globes are theoretically the easiest map to make as they're the same layout as their inspiration.
