General information

Illuminated floor globe made with crystal glass sphere Ø 51 cm, hand-coated.


These COLUMBUS globes with mouth-blown spheres bring many generations of families joy, a special atmosphere, cosmopolitanism, and knowledge. They are characterized by extraordinary craftsmanship: The highly passionate glassblowers create a perfectly shaped masterpiece - just for you.

Sometimes, changing colors helps to stand out. That is precisely what the DUO ALBA's white oceans do: Offer an eye-catcher for every interior. The subtly cool map emphasizes the arrangement of one-third of land and two-thirds of water on our planet in a completely new way. When illuminated, the globe changes its character: The oceans shine in classical blue, the landmasses in a green relief shading with mountains and valleys. A globe for a daily change of perspective. Honored as the trend product of the year at the Paperworld Frankfurt 2010.

The steadfast detail: A globe needs firm support to develop its full appeal. With the Harmonie foot design, the floor model rests on a solid fine wood fork foot made of charred oak refined with silver-gray lime and rotates in a stainless steel meridian graded on both sides, which makes the globe swivel and rotate at the same time.
