Wish globes were illumination devices that consisted of a black sphere with white veins sat in a transparent dish atop a tripod of golden legs.[1] In 19 BBY,[3] Senator Padmé Amidala of the planet Naboo had at least two wish globes in her apartment in the Senate apartment complex on the planet Coruscant. Each stood on a glass table between two chairs in one of the corners at the opposite end of the room to the doorway to Amidala's bedroom.[2]
