Christmas Lit Water Globes

Christmas lit water globes are illuminated holiday globes that combine snow or water effects with built-in lighting for glowing tabletop and shelf displays.

Lit water globes combine swirling glitter, musical melodies, and interior LED lighting for the most dramatic globe effect. The scene glows from within while glitter swirls and music plays. For non-lighted globes, see water globes. For other lighted collectibles, see Stony Creek lighted glass. Many models include an automatic timer, so the globe lights up each evening without being switched on. Browse all musical displays.
