Well i have to confess this is one of those threads that I had not looked at and then this morning I clicked on it and I'm blown away. These are absolutely beautiful Andy, love the website too and I'm so glad that things are taking off for you. No doubt after Chelsea you really will be swamped... what sort of lead times are orders on now from first contact to delivery?

Thank you for your kind words!! i hope chelsea will be a good sales platform, i have taken on a full time worker to help do the finishing on the balls to speed up the production, but still for an order placed now delivery would be late june.
 
my best FB share had 12000 shares and 100000 likes, that was on a american fairy website! that was my fairy fireball!

(i must confess that the picture you are looking at there is not mine but someone making them in america.. to my knowledge there are 4 people around the world making these, mine are best though obviously... lol)

GHF, they are great !!! Made the mistake of showing the wife and she is hooked !!
If you have the option lights can you still take them out and have a real fire or is it fire only/ light only ???
What sort of time frame for christmas 2014 ?
 
GHF is a bit busy this week at the Chelsea Flower Show. He is getting quite a bit of attention, Prince Philip is visiting him tomorrow and yesterday he was judged in the final of the new product award.
Get your order in quick is my advice!

The ball can be used for either real fire or light, as the light is just a removable unit that you can plug into the mains. The grate comes out so the light unit can sit right in the bottom of the ball to get the best illumination effect. It is possible to buy a 12v light like the one GHF supplies, and run it off a small battery/solar panel combo. Thats what I did for the ball I bought for friend - the location didn't have mains electric, so managed to source all the requisite parts off ebay and now the ball lights up on a timer in the evening, and the battery gets charged up during the day time.
