Gazing balls originated in the 13th century and have been known to bring good luck to your garden and ward off evil spirits with their reflective nature. The hand-blown glass design of this mosaic glass gazing ball is multicolor in a baroque style pattern. This gazing ball features an indentation to place in any gazing ball stand, sold separately and measures approximately 10 x 11.75 inches. We recommend bringing your gazing ball indoors during the winter to prevent cracking.
