The Sigmaringen Illuminated Desktop Globe by Columbus Globes features the DUORAMA map in a stylish stainless steel base. Measuring 13 inches, the globe is elevated 17 inches by the metallic stand. The flat and slender half-meridian holds the blue oceanic sphere at a 23.5-degree angle. At the North Pole, where the meridian intersects the globe, a time dial corresponding to the latitude and longitude grid is located.
The Sigmaringen's DUORAMA map is rich with cartographic information. In the absence of light, the organic colors of landmasses and oceans are displayed. Upon illumination, political map properties become faintly visible on the terrain. Additionally, the warm colors of the map emit a warm glow in the room.
The Sigmaringen Desktop Globe boasts a modern DUORAMA map crafted by hand. The map was carefully cut and applied to the sphere by skilled artisans in an intensive, time-consuming process.
