Floor Globe COLUMBUS DUORAMA Imperator Stainless Steel Ø 40 cm

Illuminated floor globe made of crystal glass Ø 40 cm, mouth-blown, hand-coated, stainless steel foot.

The earth in its most natural state - topography and vegetation without any human footprint: The DUORAMA's ground-vegetation map reveals a vivid view of the earth. Ocean depths or high mountain ranges, desert landscapes or forest areas, the finely hand-drawn relief shading conveys a three-dimensional impression down to the dark depths of the sea. Only the illumination shows the political map with country borders in finely graded colors. Tropics or tundra - the earth in pure splendor.

The manufacturing of these models from mouth-blown crystal glass spheres is characterized by great craftsmanship. They are masterpieces of the traditional globe production and during their fabrication, nothing is left to chance. With a unique globe in mind, the artists work manually and with the highest precision. Here, the production speed is of lesser importance - after all, the goal is to create a true masterpiece. The production of a mouth-blown sphere is a real challenge, which only a few artists around the world rise to. Therefore, it can take several days until, with much skill and passion, the materials are combined into a cartographical and optical masterpiece.

The steadfast detail: A globe needs a firm support in order to develop its full appeal. With the Imperator base design, the floor model rests on an alternating matte and polished stainless steel base and rotates in a round stainless steel meridian.
