Achla Designs 6 Fern Green Crackle Glass Gazing Globe and Stand

The first gazing globes date back to 13th century Venice, and were named "spheres of light" by Antonio Neri in 1612. Popularized in the Victorian era, these mirrored ornaments provided 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.

These glass balls are hand-blown in a layered technique, giving them a crackly appearance over the colored glass and mirror finish while maintaining structural integrity. The deep, saturated Fern Green glass will not fade over time and sunlight, and the mirrored interiors create a reflective and brilliant sparkling surface.

Each 6-inch diameter globe has a stem at the base, allowing it to sit securely in the Trestle Stand. The base is sealed with a rubber gasket to prevent moisture damage to the interior. The wrought iron Trestle Stand features spiked feet, making it perfect for planting in soil, whether in planters, intimate rock gardens, or garden beds.

The complete set, including the ball and stand, measures 18 inches in height, with the 6-inch diameter globe. This traditional garden ornament of Victorian England is a charming addition to any outdoor space, offering a unique and mesmerizing perspective on the surrounding garden.
