I have been trying to determine the size of an average decorative sphere. Most of those in furniture accessories sale told me that 6" was standard, so I ordered a 6" crystal ball. It was huge and I had to return it. I've received a variety of comments on how to measure a ball, none of which were helpful. I've read numerous customer comments, hoping that someone would state the size of a standard decorative sphere, so I wouldn't have to keep buying and returning the wrong size. When I saw the Oren Ellis Mandell clear crystal spheres sizes 3.5 and 4.5,I decided to take a chance on the sizes. Eureka! Both sizes worked in my bowl. I also bought 2.75" balls to give it some dimension. To save others the headache of looking for the average sized ball, 4" is perfect.

Pretty but HUGE for vase filler and price should be for three balls

What A great accent to my living room .

These are beautiful but be aware they are very heavy. They will not set a top of other balls because they are heavy. They are great on the top of the opening of a vase makes for a nice conversation piece or by themselves in a dish.
