My MIL got me a thing to hang outside. It has a glass ball about the size of a tennis ball - maybe smaller. The glass is clear, but sort of cringley and cracked. It has a small solar panel and lights up a small LED inside the ball at night.

Our light changes color, and it refracts around inside the ball because of the crinkly texture.

It was pretty neat for the first night - but after that it doesn’t really work. The light lasts about 2 minutes now, and very faint. Cheap Chinese Crap.

Here’s something with three balls and stained-glass:

Mystery solved! Thank you so much. I tried doing a search for an outside ornament last night but didn’t find a match. The neighbor has it under his covered porch so the solar panel can’t do anything but shine a tiny red light. Whew, called hubby and his mind is eased.

Thanks, everyone.
