This sparkling globe is a beautiful object made with Swarovski Zirconia. Each Zirconia enhances a major metropolis on earth. Swarorvski's Pure Brilliance cuts for zirconia are truly cuts above the rest. An entirely new dimension of brilliance was achieved by applying ideal diamond cut standards to the Round Pure Brilliance Zirconia for the very first time, strictly adhering to the exacting standards of the Gemological Instiute of America (GIA) for grading diamond cut quality. Every single Swarovski Zirconia is marked with a microscopic engraving that is completely invisible to the naked eye. The laser-engraved quality seal guarantees that these stones are of the highest precision and brilliance and meet the highest cutting standards of the diamond industry. This globe is an outstanding achievement that combines the experience of Columbus Globes to the high brilliance of Swarovski Zirconia .

The Duo map. The political * map (switched off) shows the various countries of the earth in many matched colours. The physical * map (switched on) shows the mountains, the plates, the plains and sea-beds. The impression of relief shown by the illuminated map is really astonishing. 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 24 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.
