This world globe is made by Columbus Verlag. We call them the Mercedez-Benz of globe makers. They are the best and longest-running globe making company in the world, and they have truly perfected their craft.
This spectacular world globe is part of a line of globes by Columbus that are made of hand-blown crystal. They are the only crystal illuminated globes made in the world.
Featuring a substantial 16-inch diameter antique-ocean crystal sphere mounted atop a stout brass pedestal base and cradled by a brass half meridian, this globe will command attention and envy where ever it is displayed. It will fit prominantly in any home or office.
The crystal sphere allows the clearest and most brilliant light to shine throughout, highlighting the exceptionally detailed cartography.
Columbus Verlag's trademark Duo technology gives you two globes in one. When the light is off, the globe displays a political view of the planet. When the light is turned on, the natural colors and shading of the Earth's landscape appears.
