Established 1909 in Germany, COLUMBUS is the oldest globe manufacturer
in the World.
COLUMBUS quickly became and continue to be the World's best-selling
line of luxury globes ( Chaplin chose in 1940 the Columbus globe
"Die Erde" for his world famous film The Great Dictator).
For nearly a century Columbus has continuously innovated and
revolutionized the globe making industry. The experience accumulated
over 4 generations has earned the Columbus brand the status of the
world’s premier globe manufacturer.
Popular features such as internal illumination (1948),
dual-mapping (1955), the Day and Night Globe (1972), the first big
floating globe (2000) were all innovations brought to us by Columbus
globes, and are all common features across many of today’s globe
manufacturers.
While being innovators and leaders, Columbus is also focused on
preservation of traditional globe manufacturing processes such as
the exclusive mouth-blowing of crystal spheres and the hand
laminating of cartography.
We didn't just want to produce globes, we
wanted to create the ultimate distinctive experience seeing the
world in your home. (Torsten Oestergaard, President and Owner ,
4th Generation) |
