Raised Relief (Textured) / Physical Map

Raised Relief (Textured):
The globe's surface features raised relief, allowing you to feel the topography of major mountain ranges and landforms by touch.

Physical Map:
A physical map globe uses color to differentiate terrain based on climatic characteristics. Topography is a crucial factor in determining a region's climate, which in turn influences vegetation and growth. The color-coding on a physical map depicts changes in vegetation zones with natural-looking colors, thereby also representing climatic changes. Replogle's physical map globes classify landmasses by climate zone, color-coding them and adding texture to represent mountain ranges and ocean floor depressions.

In very good condition, with slight surface cracking due to dryness,
but minimal fading from sun exposure.
