Popularized in the Victorian era, the mirrored finish of the Gazing Ball provided a fish-eye view of the entire garden and was believed to fend off misfortune and deliver happiness and joy. A striking ornament in the garden, usually made of blown glass, gazing globes need a stand to keep them secure and on view. The three hand forged leaves of the Trestle Stands cradle your gazing ball for delicate support. Our Achla Designs Gazing Globes have a stem is captured in the tubular section at the top of the stand, ensuring the globe will stay seated in place and a stable footed ring for use on hard surfaces. Ideal for use with any of our Achla Designs 6-inch Crackle Glass Gazing Globes, available in 13 glittering colors, these stands are perfect for small decks and patios. Makers of fine quality goods for the home and garden since 1994, we offer a full line of Achla Designs wrought iron landscape structures, plant supports and stands, birdbaths and other decorative garden elements for the patio, porch, deck and yard.
