In my opinion, no, but then I am not a globe person.
For any of us on this site to possibly help you, we would first need to know the outside demention of the base of the globe.

4", 6" & 7" is all I've seen/heard of. Some guys paint Fish Bowls to use as globes.

Not a gas globe. It is a light fixture used for decoration and to keep water, wasp, etc out of the pump. I sent you an email click on the flashing red envelop towards the top
