No, it can't be anything already made, because it's mentioned that the dwarves fashioned it themselves. Honestly, if it weren't for that one description, I'd be convinced that it was a silmaril. As it is, though, it can't be. And I don't think anyone would find a palantir and reshape it either.
"...not till now have I understood the tale of your people and their fall.
As wicked fools I scorned them, but I pity them at last.
For if this is indeed, as the Eldar say, the gift of the One to Men,
it is bitter to receive." -Arwen Undómiel

Agreed - and I Smaug certainly couldn't have sat on it for so long without suffering some torment! /
