Abstract
A unique, visually exciting, fully animated crystal ball or globe display system is attained by providing a dual chamber globe assembly, with one chamber substantially peripherally surrounding the second chamber and incorporating any desired fluid therein. With the animated scene in the second chamber, the resulting crystal ball or globe display system provides the visual impression of being fully animated and fluid-filled. In the preferred embodiment, the fluid comprises any desired liquid and contains particles therein for further visual enhancement. In addition, the liquid and particles are continuously recirculated throughout the chamber to enable both the liquid and particles to be continuously swirling, thereby providing additional visual enhancements and entertainment.
