Floor Globe COLUMBUS DUO AZZURRO Ø 40 cm / 16 inch
Illuminated floor globe with acrylic sphere, Ø 40 cm, hand-coated, brass mounting.
Water covers 71 percent of our planet. The Pacific Ocean is larger than the area of all continents taken together. Actually, our planet should be called Water instead of Earth. The DUO AZZURRO immerses itself in the beauty of the oceans. Non-illuminated, one sinks into the deep blue of the seas, and the continents' radiant blue shading creates accentuations. Illuminated, the globe reveals the sight of the oceans' entire ground structure: Depths, sea basins, volcanoes, and seamounts as high as the Alps. Honored with the Book Award of the travel fair ITB 2016, the AZZURRO offers depth in the literal sense.
The steadfast detail: A globe needs firm support to develop its full appeal. With the Regent base design, the floor model rests on a flat-edged large brass metal foot and rotates in a brass metal meridian.
