An Early Gold Mercury Glass Witches Ball or Bottle c.1820-50
The hand-blown amber gold mercury glass witches ball or bottle having a corked tapering neck accompanied by string, and when hung reflecting an entire room, showing a beautiful all-over patination, survives from nineteenth century England in beautifully original condition.
The condition is largely what one would like and expect to find in an original antique example with pitting and character marks with age. There are no cracks or damages to speak of with some imperfections to the blowing at the neck, which is charming. The cork is certainly old as is the string that hangs around the neck though it is too difficult to say if they are original to the bottle.
Witches balls have a rather interesting and mysterious history and there have been several theories put forward as to their main use. The most common theory is that witch balls were hung in 18th and 19th-century windows to ward off evil spirits as it was believed that witches could be entrapped by their own reflection. Other theories include the objects being used as an early form of burglar alarm with the large surfaces reflecting intruders to ones attention.
History tells us glass houses in England began producing witch balls in about 1690. In 16th century England the with ball was called a ‘watch bottle’ designed to contain holy water supporting the folk tale relating them to magic associated with them. The witches bottle was a stone or glass bottle filled with urine, nails or hair burned or heated for the purpose of repelling or breaking a witche’s power over her victim. Peddlars sold these bottles at country fairs and door to door. This is quite an early example compared to others you see on the market today.

Reviews for "Loctite Metal Magic ST4EL: The Key to Secure and Long-Lasting Metal Bonds"
1. Sarah - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Loctite metal magic st4el. I bought it to repair a small crack in my metal sculpture, but it just didn't hold up. The instructions said to apply a thin layer and wait for it to dry, but even after waiting for a couple of hours, the bond was weak and the crack reopened. I even tried applying a second layer, but it didn't make any difference. I ended up having to take my sculpture to a professional welder to fix it properly. Not worth the money.
2. Mark - 1 star - This Loctite metal magic st4el is a complete waste of time and money. I followed the instructions carefully, cleaned the surface, and applied the product as directed. However, the bond was incredibly weak, and within minutes, the pieces I was trying to join just fell apart. I tried it on different metal surfaces just to make sure it wasn't a faulty batch, but had the same result each time. Save your money and invest in a different metal adhesive.
3. Emily - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the Loctite metal magic st4el, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to its claims. I used it to repair a small metal handle on a drawer, and after letting it dry for the recommended time, the handle broke off again with minimal force. I even tried cleaning and roughening the surface before applying the adhesive, but it didn't make a difference. I eventually had to resort to a different brand of metal epoxy, which worked much better. Disappointing result from Loctite.
4. Chris - 2 stars - I purchased the Loctite metal magic st4el for a small DIY project, and it was a letdown. The adhesive didn't bond well to the metal surfaces, and the bond was weak and easily broke apart. I followed the instructions and even applied pressure while the adhesive was drying, but it still failed to create a strong hold. I ended up having to redo the entire project using a different adhesive. Not recommended if you're looking for a reliable metal bonding solution.
