A medium teak hardwood base with cherry finish supports the steel yoke and die-cast meridian. Award winning National Geographic cartography features crisp easy to read fonts with colorful shading consistent with their popular maps.
Globe details include over 4,000 place names, countries represented in contrasting colors, and delineated U.S. states. Political map information is up-to-date.
