Columbus Planetary Globe – 40 cm Diameter
This globe is crafted from durable acrylic glass, which is both break and heat resistant. Its surface is hand-covered for a premium finish. The base and meridian are made of brushed stainless steel with a matte finish, ensuring durability and elegance. Each 40 cm acrylic sphere is carefully laminated by hand, with the 12 map segments meticulously applied by professional laminators. This process results in a high-quality product proudly made in Germany.

Europa (Jupiter’s Moon): Features thick scratch marks on its ice crust with minimal visible impact craters.
-
Mars, Venus, and Pluto: Accurately reflect their unique surface structures and characteristics.
These globes are both decorative and scientifically accurate, making them unmatched in quality compared to other planetary globes currently available.
