(16BFG05 Mosaic Glass Gazing Globe - Decorative Glass Gazing Globe/Ball/Sphere Lawn Ornament for Gardens (10 Inch, Red/Purple)

The globe is heavy enough to feel durable . The colors are lovely. When the sun hits it you see lots of beautiful colors reflected off the surface. The texture is a little rough as the outer material is made of tiny pieces but that only serves to make the colors better and more reflective. I gave it to my friend for Christmas. He loves it and so do I.

Loved the colors, size and weight and hope it holds up for years to come!

This is very pretty. When the afternoon sun hits it it throws little dots of multicolored light against my house. I have it in shade so I don’t worry about color fade.

Great colors and iridescence. There was a small dent in the globe but it wasn't a complete break so hopefully it won't effect its durability.I've had other globes like this that have lasted for years but their colors will fade bit. However, they're so beautiful it's worth it.

Very nice piece for a sculpture I made. Note the outside mosaic has a rough crackled finish. Rain water stains aren't a problem, but otherwise a little difficult to clean. Build quality has exceeded expectations so far.

It's definitely giftable. Having gazing balls that were damaged during stormy weather, I gave it 4 stars for durability and sturdiness.

This gazing ball is absolutely gorgeous. I love all the colors it has going on and they change depending the on the lighting!! The ball came well packaged from shipping. I did notice one blemish on the ball which I attached. It feels and looks like an afterthought shard of glass on the ball. Other than that it’s perfect and very beautiful.

Looks very pretty in my wrought iron stand I picked up at a yard giveaway. It is glass so it is fragile, be careful.
