From ancient mystic cultures to the gypsy fortune tellers of Victorian carnivals, Crystal balls have captivated the human imagination for centuries. These shimmering orbs, traditionally made from clear crystal, quartz or glass, hold a special place in the realm of divination and mysticism. Whether seen as a tool for divination (scrying), a means for exploration of the self or simply as a striking piece of artwork for the home, crystal balls invite us all to look deeper into the mystery of life and remind us that it is allure of the unknown that resonates most profoundly within us.
