Illuminated free-standing globe made of real glass, precious wood fork base, aluminum - meridian graded on one side (rotatable/pivoting), hand-laminated. Since its introduction more than 70 years ago, the DUO has been the symbol of the two-in-one principle: when not illuminated, the map image clearly shows the individual countries, as soon as the lighting is switched on, the complex print makes the physical image additionally visible - with detailed topography and three-dimensional elevations. Elaborately printed in the 120 fine screen process, even the smallest fonts are crystal clear and sharp, right down to details such as train and shipping routes, even cold and warm sea currents. The result: excellent legibility and color fidelity. The steadfast detail: A globe needs a firm hold so that it can unfold its full effect. The standing model rests on a solid precious wood fork base made of stained walnut and rotates in an aluminum meridian graded on one side, which allows the globe to swivel and rotate at the same time.
