This would be part of the official "not your everyday decor" collection.

An armillary sphere is a model of objects in the sky, consisting of a spherical framework of either partial or complete rings, centered on Earth or the Sun, that represent lines of celestial longitude and latitude and other astronomically important features, such as the ecliptic.

This particular one is cast iron, and stands 13¼" tall and 9" across the widest part. It has a brown antique-looking painted finish. Since it's cast iron there's no reason you couldn't use it in the garden, but we recommend it for indoor decorative use. Ships in two pieces, which easily connect with the provided decorative finial.

PLEASE NOTE - this, like all of our cast iron, is a reproduction. We have seen these being weathered and sold as actual antiques both on Ebay and in antique stores.
Unless noted, all items are sand-cast. The surfaces can have bumps and other irregularities, and the painted finishes will vary in consistency. These are not considered defects and just add to the overall vintage/creepy look of the items.
