This illuminated glass globe by JRO-Verlag Munich was produced in Germany in the 1960s and exemplifies the mid-century modern approach in European design. The sphere is made of glass, overlaid with a meticulously printed paper map in a cool, pastel turquoise; the continents are rendered in beige and light brown, accented with subtle hints of green and yellow. Cartographic markings—country borders, names, and ocean currents—are precisely drawn in black and red, maintaining clarity and accuracy. The globe has a matte surface, emphasizing its authentic vintage character. A brushed silver metal meridian, engraved with degree markers, and a sturdy base of light brown lacquered wood joined by a chrome support complete the construction. The power cord features a classic brown inline switch, and the proportions (height 35 cm, width 25 cm, base diameter 15.5 cm) reinforce the collectible nature of the object. The globe is preserved in good
