Description
This extra large political world globe is as educational as it is decorative, and the educational and viewing experience is enhanced because the globe can be explored 360° degrees as it rotates on two axes.
The political boundaries of the world map of this earth globe have been accurately updated in October of 2011 by the Zoffoli team of cartographers. This stunning piece, as well as all the terrestrial globes and bar globes in the Geographica Collection, boasts incredible geographical detail of countries and major cities of the world in both the original language and English, as well as capitals, main rivers, most important mountain ranges and all islands around the world.
The globe sphere itself is a traditional light blue and is encompassed by a silver colored metal meridian, while the metal floor stand is a deep charcoal grey. This Colombo floor globe is not only a reference & geographical tool, but it is a piece of modern furniture that will be the center of attention in any home or office.
The modern designer look of this floor-standing globe furniture will add a chic contemporary look to any decor in any room. This contemporary floor globe is also available in a lovely antique rose color and 20-inch (50 cm) diameter size (see Related Products below).
This extra large political world globe by Zoffoli has been given the Italian name of the explorer Christopher Columbus (Cristoforo Colombo).
Zoffoli’s dream has always been to combine the ancient craft of globe-making with the latest technological solutions, thus way succeeding in exploiting new materials with traditional methods on an industrial level, and aiming to create a modern version of the geographical globe that remains true to the concept of elegance and excellence in a classical crafted object.”
