{"product_id":"3d-wooden-world-map-multicolor-framed","title":"3D Wooden World Map Multicolor – Framed Panel","description":"\u003ch3\u003eWooden continents on a painted ocean\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe panel comes assembled and framed. Behind the map is a printed backing board – a chart-grey ocean crossed by faint meridians, with an old-map wash to it – and the continents are cut from stained wood and mounted on top, standing a few millimetres proud of the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe land runs through the full warm range: pale birch, chestnut, near-black walnut, mid-brown, warm ochre. Neighbouring countries almost never repeat a shade, so nearly every border is legible without needing the engraved line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe detail you see up close\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe ocean names, the compass rose and the small aircraft and ships are not printed on the backing. They are separate wooden pieces mounted on the ocean surface, which is why they carry their own shadows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat layering is the point of the piece. From a sofa it reads as a framed map; from a metre away it becomes visibly three-dimensional, with the coastlines lifting off the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo sizes, and they are not the same purchase\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe small panel is 90 × 60 cm, the medium 110 × 80. The gap between them is larger than the numbers suggest, because a rectangle grows in both directions at once: the medium covers roughly 60 per cent more wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe small suits a hallway, a home office, or the space above a desk. The medium wants a sofa, a bed or a wide stretch of clear wall, and at that size the individual countries become readable from across a room rather than only up close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the frame changes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOur piece-by-piece maps have no border at all: continents mounted straight onto the wall, with the wall itself as the ocean. This one is a rectangle with a black edge, which puts it in the same category as a framed print.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe practical consequence is where it can hang. A framed rectangle sits comfortably alongside other framed things, in a gallery arrangement or above furniture. A borderless map needs clear wall around it and does not group with anything.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it asks of the wall\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne fixing, rated for a panel this size – a plasterboard anchor rather than a picture pin, and a hook rather than adhesive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the fixing is mechanical, the wall surface stops mattering. Textured plaster, brick, painted panelling and freshly painted walls are all fine, which is not true of our tape-mounted maps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLiving with it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDust it as you would a framed picture. The raised continents collect a little more than a flat print, so a soft brush works better than a cloth, which can catch on the edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKeep it out of direct sunlight. Here the backing fades before the wood does, and as the ocean lightens the contrast that makes the continents stand out begins to go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMulticolor or Graphite\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two panels share the format and the chart-grey ocean; the difference is the land. The \u003ca href=\"\/products\/tableau-carte-du-monde-en-bois-3d-graphite\"\u003eGraphite panel\u003c\/a\u003e mixes slate and bronze into its continents and reads cooler; this one keeps the land entirely warm. Graphite also comes in one size only – if you need the smaller 90 × 60 format, this is the panel that offers it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd if these colours belong on your wall but you want the scale and the ritual of building it yourself, the same palette exists as our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/3d-wooden-world-map-multicolor\"\u003etaped Multicolor map\u003c\/a\u003e, up to two metres wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOne honest limitation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a decorative object rather than a cartographic instrument. Small countries and island groups are simplified or omitted at this scale, and coastlines are smoothed. If you need geographic precision, a printed map serves better.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Creatifwood","offers":[{"title":"S (90*60 cm)","offer_id":47256693899395,"sku":"TCM03","price":129.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"M (110*80 cm)","offer_id":47258078675075,"sku":"TCM01","price":269.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/8818\/8035\/files\/D0_9C_D0_A3_D0_9B_D0_AC_D0_A2_D0_98-13.jpg?v=1780907632","url":"https:\/\/creatifwood.fr\/products\/3d-wooden-world-map-multicolor-framed","provider":"CreatifWood","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
