Crystal Ball on Stand 150mm

Nothing is credited with the magical power of divination more than the humble Crystal Ball.  The picture of the fortune-telling gypsy gazing into the ball and foretelling your future is only one aspect of this purely symbolic item. 

It is mentioned in the Book of Revelation and referred to in the legend of King Arthur, who sought the advice and prophecies of Merlin the Magician via his crystal ball...

Prominent in the Middle Ages, scryers (fortune tellers) revered their crystal balls, often passing them on to their apprentices. A tool for reaching and communicating with the divine, crystals have indeed always been used in communications—just as they are today in radios, telephones, and computers.

Perhaps the reason crystal balls became important tools is due to their inherent characteristics of transparency and symmetry. Additionally, it is claimed that the energetic fields of crystals and gemstones influence what the scryer sees on a very subtle and often esoteric level.

Warning!
It may seem self-evident, but it is worth noting that because of the optical nature of crystal balls, if left in direct sunlight, there is a slight possible fire hazard.
