Desktop Globe COLUMBUS Planet Globe Pluto Regent Ø 40 cm

Illuminated desktop globe with acrylic sphere, Ø 40 cm, hand-coated, stainless steel mounting.

The different maps are carefully hand-coated onto a 40 cm acrylic sphere by a professional. By manufacturing by hand, COLUMBUS globes become a particularly high-quality manufactured product.

The planet Pluto was initially thought to be bigger than it is! One could not recognize that this planet still has a quite big moon next to it. Thus, it is actually two independent bodies, both orbiting around a common center of gravity. It consists of 70 percent rock and 30 percent ice. Because the planet orbits 6 billion kilometers from the Sun, warm solar rays no longer reach it. Pluto has an orbital period of about 247 years. Thanks to the Horizon Probe, we are able to see sharp images of the planet Pluto.

The classic and elegant yet puristic sparkling mounting obtains its dimly glimmering shine through a special stainless steel finish - or you prefer a mounting made of mirror-finished massive brass. Whatever you decide: This product of great manual skill transforms your globe into an expression of a particular quality of life, which will continue to bring you joy for decades.
