 Items - Class Specific -- Sorceress Exceptional Orbs
Also all orbs are magical or better now, the inherent bonus always makes the orb count as magical.

 Mike Swanson's Blog : Automated Continuous Integration and the Ambient Orb™
The Orb is capable of some simple color “animations” like pulsing and an effect called “crescendo” that slowly brightens a color, then immediately dims.
The Orb is commonly sold as a device to monitor the stock market, local weather, or any of a number of other free channels of information.
This means that you only have to plug the Orb into a power outlet, register its device ID with Ambient Devices, and from that point on, the Orb will change colors and animations when its information changes.

These false orbs can also be created by bright lights in an area where the photo is being taken, by angles of light and by many types of artificial lighting.
