The Renaissance map.Style of the antique maps with the oceans in parchment colour, coloured borders around mono colour countries , a frigate, a wind rose, sea-serpents, ... The illuminated map reveals the navigator routes from Christophe Colomb to Magellan. This map was carried out according to some 16th century originals by integrating the current borders. Its warm colours underline the traditional character of this globe. We don't just print our globes; we strive to create an incredibly deep, flawless shine. It all starts in our state-of-the-art 'clean printing room', where our craftsmen work just with superior acrylic sheets. Bringing in all kind of papers is strictly forbidden, because it would bring in fine paper dust particles which could later be attracted in the printing process. Printing up to 18 successive layers of colors, there's a curing process between each layer, along with an inspection and careful cleaning. Once the printing is complete, a high gloss clear coat layer is applied over the entire map, than it is sent back for inspection to our cartographic department. Unmistakable COLUMBUS cartography: Splendour of Elegance. |

Established 1909 in Germany, COLUMBUS is the oldest globe manufacturer in the World. COLUMBUS quickly became and continue to be the World's best-selling line of luxury globes ( Chaplin chose in 1940 the Columbus globe "Die Erde" for his world famous film). Popular features such as internal illumination (1948), dual-mapping (1955), the Day and Night Globe (1972) were all innovations introduced by Columbus globes. While being innovators and leaders, Columbus is also focused on preservation of traditional globe manufacturing processes such as the exclusive mouth-blowing of crystal spheres and the hand laminating of cartography. |

High class aesthetic globe
Eleftheria K. from 18121 Korydallos attikis (Greece)
cannot say much really i brought on behalf of someone else have had no feedback as yet
Sherrill S. from WV3 7BT Wolverhampton (United kingdom)
I thought that the globe would be a bit heavier, but otherwise it was very nice looking and my husbund was very pleased. I also thought that it would have been more brown in the colour rather than so yellow, but my mistake.
