Globes, where which the map image is applied by hand.

In the case of laminated globes, the map image is divided into 12 segments and attached by hand.

Globes manufactured according to this artisan tradition have a particularly brilliant map image with the highest level of detail, which cannot be achieved with other printing methods.

This very special craftsmanship is practised by only a handful of manufacturers.
