What better way to see the world than with an illuminated globe on your desk or in your home. You'll be able to learn, to study and to explore like never before with the help of a globe lighting your way.
A globe is the most accurate illustration of the earth as we know it. Unlike a flat map you can see how the world truly looks; all the countries are shown in true size relative to each other. You can see how far apart different cities are and on some globes what time it is in different areas of the world.
You have probably seen and even used globes while you were in school, but they pale in comparison to the wealth of knowledge found on an illuminated globe. Some illuminated globes are really two globes in one as they show the physical world in raised relief in standard view and the political world when illuminated or vice versa. Others show the constellations in the night sky. But that's not all. Some globes even show day and nighttime for any time, date, and location in the world throughout the four seasons. A pinpoint light shows the actual location of the sun throughout the year.
The beauty and information on an illuminated globe make it one accent piece you can't do without. And the best place to find the largest selection of these globes full of twinkling light is by shopping on the internet. You'll be able to browse the best selection and the best prices from the comfort of home rather than hitting up every store in town.
Maybe you want a globe that will double as a night light for your child's room? Why not try one that features more than 100 different drawings of animals, produce, monuments and special features of individual countries and regions. Not only will they learn and explore the world, but its many locales will fill their dreams as they sleep. Or fill that corner in your living room with a globe that combines antique styling with modern ease. A classically colored globe with touch on illumination and over 20,000 place names will complete your room with detail and style.
No matter what style of illuminated globe that you choose your return on investment will be ten-fold. Not only will you fill your home or office with a soft glow, you'll light the flame of imagination and exploration in anyone who gazes upon it. Globes are teachers, reference tools and travel guides. They encourage discovery, teach history and geography and unravel mysteries. Let a new globe illuminate your world with knowledge and beauty.
You'll love the sophistication and simple elegance one lends to any room as it sits in its rich wooden or cool metal stand; always turning on its axis. Show off your love for our planet and never stop exploring its charm and intrigue. Your illuminated globe will inspire you to care about our planet and encourage you to learn more about it and its beautiful diversity.
