Hand-blown art glass ornament/Witch's Ball, Orb Jasper-like Browns & Red 5 Oz

This orb resembles Ocean Jasper, also known as orbicular jasper, a type of jasper found in Madagascar said to be a powerful healing stone that promotes tranquility, joy and emotional harmony. The weight of the art glass ball is a little over 5 ounces. It is in excellent condition. No chips or cracks. This item will likely become a family heirloom. The colors are hard to capture without reflections, so I took photos both inside and outside to give you the best possible views. This can be used as a Christmas ornament or all year round as a witch's ball, a hollow glass sphere traditionally hung in windows to ward off evil spirits and bad luck, originating in 17th- and 18th-century England. They are often colorful and are believed to attract and trap negative energies within their strands. Ships from the Midwest.
