Exclamation Do anybody know....

Does anybody know where one can find and purchase small glass terrariums (if that is what this is called) like the one pictured here? I had also seen globe shaped ones also.
This photo was taken at the 27th International/GNYOS Show in NYC at Rockefeller Center this year.

Check out my site below for more orchid pictures from the show!

Thanks!

I asked the same question in another thread. I wish I knew the answer. I like these glass drops a lot too.

Do you think it would be easy enough to maintain? the opening looks kind of small....wonder if it's big enough for a 'male' size hand to get thru?

Has anyone triede to contact the exhibitor that had these demonstrated in situ in their exhibit at NY show? Thought it was Ecuagenera but could be mistaken.

Those are too cool!! I thought it was soo cool how they had those at the orchid show for display. I would not want to use them myself though.
