{"title":"Crystal Balls \u0026 Spheres","description":"\u003cp\u003eCrystal balls have held a quiet place in contemplative traditions for centuries, a polished sphere that draws the eye inward, perfect for focus during meditation or simply as a striking centrepiece in any room. Our collection brings together optical glass crystal balls in a range of sizes, each resting on its own stand, ready to become a lasting part of your daily ritual or home décor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the collection\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece in this collection is crafted from optical glass: a clear, highly transparent material that holds a smooth, distortion-free surface. Each crystal ball comes with a stand included, so it arrives ready to display. Sizes range from a compact 30mm sphere up to a substantial 200mm, meaning you can choose something that fits neatly on a desk or shelf, or a larger sphere that commands attention on a side table or altar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right size\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize shapes both the experience and the placement. Smaller glass crystal balls, around 30mm to 60mm, are well suited to a desk or bedside table, or for carrying in a pouch during travel. Mid-range sizes between 80mm and 130mm strike a balance between presence and portability, popular for daily meditation practice or as a focal point on a windowsill where light can pass through the sphere. Larger crystal balls from 150mm upwards make striking home décor pieces, particularly effective in a living room or space where they can catch natural light throughout the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWays to use your crystal ball\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a meditation crystal ball, the sphere serves as a single point of focus, resting your gaze on its surface can help steady a wandering mind during seated practice. In home décor, a glass sphere brings a sense of calm order to a room, its reflective quality catching and softening light. Many people place their crystal ball on an altar cloth alongside other spiritual tools such as smudge bowls and ritual items, creating a dedicated space for intention-setting and stillness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is optical glass, and why does it matter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptical glass is a high-clarity material with minimal internal imperfections, producing a clearer, more distortion-free surface than standard glass. This makes it ideal for a crystal ball where clarity and light transmission are important, both for meditation focus and for the way the sphere catches and refracts light in a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDo all crystal balls come with a stand?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes: every crystal ball in this collection includes a stand, so you don't need to source one separately. The stand is designed to cradle the sphere securely and display it at a gentle angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I clean and care for my crystal ball?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe the sphere gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth to remove dust and fingerprints. Avoid abrasive materials or chemical cleaners, as these can scratch the glass surface. If you use your crystal ball for smudging or incense practice, occasional gentle cleaning with a soft cloth dampened with lukewarm water will keep it clear. Store in a padded pouch or cloth if transporting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich size is best for meditation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis depends on personal preference and how you practise. A smaller to mid-range crystal ball, around 60mm to 100mm, is easy to hold or position close at hand during seated meditation. Larger spheres work well when placed at eye level on a stand, allowing you to gaze at them from a chair or cushion without needing to hold the weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use a crystal ball as a decorative piece?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. A glass crystal ball makes an elegant home décor piece, particularly in a living room, bedroom, or space. Its reflective quality adds depth to a room, and a larger sphere on a stand can become a natural focal point on a side table, shelf, or mantelpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"selenite-sphere-5-6-cm","title":"Selenite Crystal Sphere 5-6 cm","description":"\u003cp\u003eSoft, moon-pale and quietly tactile, this selenite crystal sphere is made for slow looking and still corners.

This piece comes from Morocco, a country closely associated with selenite and desert-mineral deposits.

The 'aura' finish is achieved by bonding fine metallic particles to the polished surface in a vacuum chamber, a process that gives the stone its characteristic iridescent sheen without altering the underlying mineral.
