How does a ball "gently resting" on the lip of a carafe even keep the air from drying my gummy-bears, or for that matter, waterlogging my cereal ? How would you manufacture spherical (and corresponding) stoppers without incurring massive costs and astronomical defect percentages? I'd rather find something else to impress my guests.

If I may, as far as originality goes, a simple Google Images search for carafes should speak for itself. Okay it’s pretty, but it’s just a jar with a ball as a lid.

You know, basic design assumptions. A lid is supposed to hold onto the container with just enough strength to prevent its content from being spilled. You know, basic design assumptions.

Leave a window open and the draft will make such a light ball roll away; walk fast by it, drop a newspaper next to it, to oppose this fact is simply bad faith. Adding a small flat surface to it would just enhance the design by taking the real life parameters of usability into account. This is not a sculpture. Not a matter of intelligence.
