The abstract sculpture 60 spheres, representing 60 years on the throne, was designed by Caroline Basra, 15, a pupil at Windsor Girls' School, who won a competition to come up with a Jubilee tribute.
I counted the spheres, there were only 59 stainless steel spheres, The Glass globe appears to be missing.
"Caroline Basra, a pupil at Windsor Girls’ School, won a competition to design a sculpture to commemorate the Queen’s diamond jubilee which Her Majesty unveiled last week in the main shopping centre in the shadow of Windsor Castle.
Caroline’s design, which she apparently dashed off in 10 minutes last year when her art teacher at school told the girls to do something for the competition, consists of 59 polished steel spheres arranged around a helix. However, right on top is a multi-faceted crystal glass ball, with a light inside, that is meant to represent a diamond.
In other words, there is a sphere for each of the 60 years that the Queen has been on the throne." Text Source: (
