J_Ding Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 This one is 0.60" on a vaseline base. My thinking is that this isn't oxblood, or it is weak, or ox made by a company that didn't venture into this area much. Not strongly banded with darker striations in the red glass. Just not sure. And yep, this one is a uranium screamer! Thanks! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 I wish I had one. It's a pretty marble and an unusual combination of glass and colors. If I had seen any numbers of these, I would likely remember it, and I don't so . . . ? The only similar glass/color combo I can think of, and it's really not that similar to production examples, would be in an Akro Cherry Ade (I wonder if there are dug examples). Hopefully, someone else will recognize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Being so unusual, I'm moving it to the main forum for my eyes to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Oregon Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Also, a thought, because of the other yellow one that was called a messed up cat's-eye (but a definitely different one) and the European slag, it might be possible that both this and the yellow one are some type of European swirl that we are just not that familiar with over here.

Ric Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 The Vaseline glass with red striping is unusual. It'd be a sweet Peltier Sunset. The bubbles are right but I think that's a fold and not a seam - and uranium glass? It also seems to have some furnace debris. Can't blame Bill for a little wistful thinking though, he loves those oddball Pelts. It could be some kind of Euro swirl, I guess. I would like to see it in hand. Please let me know if you want to part with it - it's a pretty one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Ding Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Thanks everyone! Keep the ideas rolling. It is a very interesting marble it seems, and I'm glad it generated a minor bit of wonder. I'd guess this would be a keeper. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 It reminded me of these - attributed to Champion, I think, but not uv-reactive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 These too - Ravenswood, also not uv reactive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nantucketdink Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 I believe it might be a Jackson, but I don't think I own one of these. I think I remember learning about this marble elsewhere in the past. JABO has a very similar marble with the red and a touch of white but it isn't UV reactive and the pattern is not JABO.

wvrons Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 I agree with Jackson. Good job Josh. The vaseline base should be just a tint of vaseline color and glow bright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckEye Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Ric I just found a group of jacksons with three of these in it, you can have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Ding Posted August 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Great! I am getting some more like on my swirl education. I thought maybe Jackson too base on the UV cullet that they used. Didn't feel confident enough without some added help. Thanks a bunch! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
