Luzern, Chandelier in Clear, Acrylic Sphere

I need some help.

In Luzern right at the water, behind the train station and museum, is a park, Inseli Park, to the right on Alpenquai.

In Inseli Park, right as you enter it from this end, is a small, mobile 'cafe' (Buvette Bar/Cafe, I think) with a chandelier inside a large, acrylic globe hanging from a tree. Brilliant and it has been here for years.

It can be seen here:

Does anybody know where (online, I suspect) I can buy a clear, acrylic globe this big and for this purpose?

We are opening a restaurant and this would be PERFECT outside... ;)

This looks like something close to what you want...you'd have to find your own fixture for the inside but I would think that to be an advantage! Scroll down the page a ways and there's one very similar to the picture. This is what this company does...lots of round things made from acrylic!

Anita,

I don't know what to say, and so quickly, too. Thanks!

Looks perfect, no prices but I will call them tomorrow.

Sorry about this not being travel related, but it is certainly related to Luzern! ;)
