Description: This is a beautiful 1751 map of the Duchy of Savoy by Rober de Vaugondy. It covers from Vevey in Switzerland south to Valloire, France and from Nantua east as far as Chatillon in the Aosta Valley of Italy. The map renders the entire region in extraordinary detail offering both topographical and political information with forests and mountains beautifully rendered in profile.

It depicts the Savoie wine region of France, popular for its rare white wines from grapes unique to this region. These include the Chignin Bergeron wines, made from grapes from the Montmelian and Chignin regions, in the southwest quadrant of the map and the Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir wines.

The map includes a beautifully engraved title cartouche in the top right quadrant. This map was drawn by Robert de Vaugondy in 1752 and published in the 1757 issue of his Atlas Universal.

Size: Printed area measures 20 inches high by 21 inches wide.

Condition: Very good. Minor wear along original centerfold. Original platemark visible. Some spotting.



Shipping: Shipping rates are not negotiable. Items are shipped within three business days of receiving payment. We are happy to consolidate shipping where possible. The following shipping options are available:
1. FedEx Overnight (45 USD). USA Only. Signature Required.
2. FedEx Ground or Home Delivery (15 USD). USA Only. 1 - 10 days. If your address is a P.O. Box and cannot ship FedEx we will ship USPS Priority and, while we ship promptly, recent postal personnel cutbacks mean that delivery may take time. Signature Required.
3. FedEx International or DHL International EXPRESS (45 USD).
4. We can use your FedEx Account.

Customs: International buyers are responsible for paying duty and taxes on delivery. DHL or FedEx will contact the buyer by telephone to arrange tax payment if it is levied. Duty varies by country and we cannot predict the amount you will be charged. Some countries are duty free, others are not. Typically, a customs duty and/or VAT tax will be assessed on all parcels to continental Europe. Sometimes duty or tax is due in China, but is seems very random. Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea, and Taiwan have never assessed duty on a map we shipped. Maps shipped to the UK should be duty free as educational materials, but from time to time duty of 5% is assessed incorrectly by the UK customs agents.

Insurance: All shipments are insured privately against loss and damage. All of our shipments require a signature for insurance purposes.

If you have any questions please feel free to email us through eBay.
