Mandarin Crackle Glass Gazing Globe and Stand

Gazing balls, also known as "spheres of light," date back to 13th century Venice, as named by Antonio Neri in 1612. These mirrored garden ornaments gained popularity during the Victorian era, providing a fish-eye view of the entire garden and were believed to fend off misfortune, delivering happiness and joy.

ACHLA Designs offers these sparkling garden jewels, adding color, charm, and good luck to your outdoor space. The glass balls are blown using a layered technique, giving a crackly appearance over the colored glass and mirror finish, while maintaining structural integrity.

The Trestle Stand, with its three hand-forged leaves, cradles the gazing ball, offering delicate support. Spiked feet at the base can be easily pushed into plantings, lawns, or garden beds, securing the ornament in place.

Crafted in a brilliant Mandarin orange glass that won't fade over time or with exposure to sunlight, the interiors are mirrored, creating a reflective and brilliantly sparkling surface. Each 6-inch diameter globe is equipped with a stem at the base, allowing it to sit securely in the stand.

To prevent moisture damage to the interior, the base of the gazing ball is sealed with a rubber gasket. The complete Ball and Stand measure 18 inches in height, with a 6-inch diameter globe.
