These are great. They react every time there will be a storm. Seems the stronger the storm the more crystals are created.

This was sent as a bi rthday gift. It arrived in good shape and was enjoyed. The ordering process , however wasnot pleasant. It was at some off shore call center and the girl had trouble understanding and typing in what I said and then she tried to hard sell all kinds of offers. I am not inclined to order from you again just because of this experience.

This was a gift to someone who has pretty much everything, but knowing some of the quirks , I knew this would be a winner for a gift - and it was!

Fitzroy storm globe
Review by Jennifer H. on 05/23/22 review stating Fitzroy storm globe
Got this globe as a Christmas gift and absolutely love watching the ferns change with the weather. There were 5 globes given for Christmas gifts and we share pictures with each other all the time. Unfortunately, I knocked mine over and it broke so I'm here buying another one..at double the price and I'm fine with paying the price. [?]
