General information

Globes. Reimagined. 

Grasshopper Geography's vibrant elevation maps find their ideal match on our COLUMBUS globes, displaying the Earth's topography in a unique colour scheme derived from satellite-based digital elevation models.  

This fusion of scientific precision and artistic design results in highly detailed, accurate globes that serve both as functional 2-in-1 information tools and elegant décor pieces for offices or living rooms.  

With over 100 years of experience, COLUMBUS Verlag remains committed to its tradition of craftsmanship. Each map is printed on high-quality paper with an exceptional 1400 DPI resolution, ensuring remarkable detail and colour fidelity. These maps are meticulously applied in 12 segments by skilled hands onto durable acrylic glass spheres, and finished with a glossy coating for a radiant shine. 

Stainless steel bases and meridians, treated with a refined satin finish, enhance the globes' modern design, creating a seamless blend of innovation and heritage that complements any interior.
