The Weimar Illuminated Crystal Desktop Globe by Columbus Globes boasts a luxurious design and intricate cartography. Standing at 20 inches tall, this 16 inch sphere sits elegantly on its brass-colored steel base and semi-meridian. The golden hue of the stand complements the colors of the political map and adds to its sophisticated style.
Featuring the nostalgic ROYAL map, this globe displays an antique colored ocean reminiscent of cartography from the past. Packed with geographic information including contemporary place names, shipping routes, and water currents, the ROYAL map contrasts the earth-toned landmasses against the beige waters. When illuminated, physical map details also become visible on the sphere's surface.
Handcrafted by Columbus' skilled artisans, this globe is a true work of art. The 16 inch glass sphere is hand-blown, and the maps are manually cut and applied to the surface. As the only company that still produces glass world globes by hand, Columbus ensures the exceptional quality of each model. The Weimar Illuminated Glass Desktop Globe is a stunning addition to any desk, coffee table, or bookshelf and is built to last a lifetime.
