Stem Reflection Globe – Waypoint Geographic

This unique 12-inch illuminated floor globe, mounted on a tilted metal post, has an understated design when switched off, with grey continents and white oceans.

Flick the switch to illuminate the globe, and the colour scheme is reversed, with the oceans are darker than the continents.

Price: $499.99

Columbus Kiel – Columbus Globes

This meticulously crafted, 16-inch diameter, illuminated globe is made from a glass sphere mouth-blown in Germany.

The DUO system pioneered by Columbus Globes allows two maps to be combined on one globe: when not illuminated, the globe shows a detailed political map; when illuminated, a physical map emerges.

Price: $679
