Kate's Glass House offers an array of handblown glass items by several North American Artists. These are all handblown, and therefore no two are alike. The measurements provided are approximate, as most of our items are not perfectly round.

 

Handblown Witch Ball

"Witch Balls were very popular in 18th Century England, but their actual origin is thought to be much older. For well over 300 years, hollow glass spheres have been hung in windows to ward off spells, evil spirits, and ill fortune. Hanging these decorative balls in the window is thought to tantalize evil spirits which may be threatening a home's tranquility. The evil spirit is mesmerized by the balls reflective beauty. When the spirit touches the sphere it is absorbed and trapped in the web-like strands of glass inside the ball."
