The Universe series by Columbus combines traditional craftsmanship with modern planetary research, creating stunning astronomical globes that depict the moons and planets of our solar system with exceptional accuracy and detail.

Columbus Planetary Globe – 40 cm Diameter

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

Realistic Planetary Details

Special care has been taken to ensure realistic representation of planetary surfaces and colors:

• Jupiter: Displays distinct stripes representing its gas layers, easily identifiable by color.

• Europa (Jupiter’s Moon): Features thick scratch marks on its ice crust with minimal visible impact craters.

• Mars, Venus, and Pluto: Reflect their unique surface structures and characteristics with precision.

These planetary globes are both decorative and scientifically accurate, making them unmatched in quality compared to other planetary globes currently available.

Ideal for Various Uses
