5.0 out of 5 stars Love this crystal, January 20, 2009

I purchased this 40mm crystal ball along with several other styles to hang by my window to make rainbows on my wall. This particular crystal is very pretty to look at, and looks kind of sparkly when you walk around the room from all of the little cuts. It does have a little bit of weight to it, (3 and 5/8 ounces) compared to a 76mm teardrop crystal (3 and 1/8 ounces), but that wasn't much of a concern for what I needed the crystal for.
As far as rainbows go, this crystal makes a ton of tiny rainbows on the wall. My children love to spin it and the rainbows spin so fast on the wall that they make what we call "Saturn rings". If you want bigger rainbows on your walls then look for a crystal that has larger cuts in it. (This crystal:76mm Teardrop Crystal Prisms #873-76 is the biggest crystal I ordered, and it makes bigger/better rainbows. It just isn't quite as pretty to look at as the ball crystal.)
I plan on ordering more of these ball crystals because they are just so pretty and would make relatively inexpensive gifts.
The crystals I ordered from Crystal Clear Images on Amazon all turned out great. The company is very good to work with. One crystal I received didn't match the picture on Amazon and I could have easily returned it, but I decided to keep it. My point is, I didn't have any issues with this company.

4.0 out of 5 stars This Prism is Very Good Value, Not Best Value of Those Available Through Amazon, March 10, 2010

This review is from: 40mm 1- 1.2" Crystal Ball 30% Lead Suncatcher

I've purchased seven prisms through Amazon and six different types. They're all very good deals.

The clear prisms create the strongest rainbows. Large facets result in the longest and thickest rainbows as well as the most vivid colors by far. The cut of this prism is to create more but smaller color splashes of moderate color strength. However, the round shape is very convenient because you don't have to concern yourself with facing the prism a certain way to catch more rays.

A good way to hang them is to use fishing line, which is quite inexpensive and not very noticeable.

This large prism is very good and well-worth the price. However, a much better prism is this one:76mm Teardrop Crystal Prisms #873-76.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Disappointed..., April 20, 2006

The 40 mm crystal ball was supposed to be NEW, but it arrived with a fairly large defect that spoils its appearance completely, and I would not give this as a gift as was intended.
