General information

Illuminated globe with crystal glass sphere, Ø 40 cm, hand-coated, OID compatible.

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.

The invention of lithography in the 19th century revolutionized the production of maps. The schematical woodcut and copperplate engraving gave way to the colored appearance of drawn maps - but in wide circulation. Our ROYAL unites the nostalgic feeling of old map styles and current data. The warm impression of its map meets today's political worldview. In 2015 it was honored as manufacture product of the year with the German manufacture seal, and in 2018 the travel fair ITB awarded it with the book award for outstanding publicist performances. The ROYAL: Scientific know-how of the 21st century in the look of the 19th century.

The steadfast detail: a globe needs firm support to develop its full appeal. With the Imperator base design, the table model rests on a matte gold finished metal foot and rotates in an equally colored round metal meridian. Elegant detail: The concealed cable duct.
