What sunlight does inside this crystal sphere
This 4 centimetre hand-cut crystal sphere is for anyone who wants the lively play of sunlight to settle into their home. The many polished facets work like a prism: incoming rays split into the seven colours of the rainbow and scatter as tiny dots of light across the walls, the furniture and the curtains. You will feel as if each clear afternoon hosts its own quiet little festival of light in your living room.
Where to hang the sphere
The best spot is a south or west facing window where strong, direct sunlight reaches inside. Hung on a thin cord or clear fishing line at curtain rod height, the sphere moves bright dots around the room for hours. It also looks lovely in a darker corner, a home office or an entrance hall, anywhere you want to bring a touch of brightness onto the walls.
A short note on feng shui
Feng shui is a Chinese teaching more than 3 000 years old that focuses on the flow of life energy, known as chi, in our surroundings. Followers believe that light, reflections and natural materials play a key role in making a home or workplace feel balanced. Cut crystals are among the favourite accessories, because by moving light around they can also wake up the stagnant corners.

How to care for the crystal
Over time a fine layer of dust gathers on the surface and softens the rainbow effect. Once a month wipe it with a soft, dry microfibre cloth, or use a cloth dipped in lukewarm water and well wrung out, then let it dry. Do not use chemicals or abrasive cleaners. When you take it down from the window, store it wrapped in a soft cloth so the surface does not get scratched.
