Illuminated globe with acrylic sphere, Ø 40 cm, hand-coated, brass mounting.
Maps and globes tell us about the knowledge of their time - but also about the self-image and the representative ambitions of their owners. For a long time handmade for the rich and powerful, they always flaunted insignia of power, symbols of ideology, or fantastic creatures. The hand-drawn, historicizing map of the IMPERIAL takes you to this forgotten world: Fascinating frigates, mythical sea monsters, and guiding windroses meet the political border demarcation of our time. A globe for connoisseurs of history.
The mounting made of mirror-finished massive brass is a product of great manual skill that transforms your globe into an expression of a particular quality of life, which will continue to bring you joy for decades.

Bei kaschierten Globen wird das in 12 Segmente untergliederte Kartenbild von Hand aufgeklebt.
Diese Art der Aufbringung wird bei den Kartenbildern DUO™ -, DUORAMA™ , ROYAL™, DUO ALBA™, BLACK SERIES™, IMPERIAL™ und DUO AZZURRO™angewendet.
Unsere traditionell gefertigten Globen sind mit Acrylglaskugeln oder mundgeblasenen Kristallglaskugeln erhältlich.
Das Kartenbild wird im Offset-Druckverfahren auf speziellem Papier gedruckt.
Es besticht durch brillante Farben kombiniert mit höchster Detailtreue.
Die hochfeine Auflösung bewirkt, dass der Rasterpunkt für das menschliche Auge so gut wie nicht mehr sichtbar ist.
Hinweis für Fachleute: Columbus Globen werden mit einem 90er Raster gedruckt, während im Wettbewerb in der Regel ein 60er Raster verwendet wird.
The coating of our globes is done by hand. This technique is used for the
DUO™ -, DUORAMA™ , ROYAL™, DUO ALBA™, BLACK SERIES™, IMPERIAL™ and DUO AZZURRO™ globes.
The maps are produced by using the offset printing method on special paper that impresses with brilliant colors and high details.
Due to the high resolution, it is almost impossible to notice the grid point with the human eye.
For experts: A 90 point grid is used for our Columbus globes which distinguishes them from competing products which are usually produced by using a 60 point grid technique.
