  4. It's 41/64 inches and has enough color variation and pattern that I wouldn't call it a game marble.

  8. See if it reacts to UV light; Jabo also used Fenton UV rose glass.

  10. I wouldn't know if it is part of a run, with that amber color There has been a jabo run with a pink similar to yours, and it is called 'pink flamingo,' and it is very valuable, but it does not have a base or amber part, it contains only oxblood. It was a run called jabo'Peltier Mansion' which also included marbles with silver...but maybe I'm digressing too much. Here is the pink flamingo with ox

  11. No light will pass through an opaque base marble while translucent is almost transparent (Clear). Translucent (semi opaque) light will pass through but the glass base is not transparent (Hazy). Transparent is completely clear no matter the base color you can see clear through it.

  12. Well, opaque is any color where no light passes through at all, not even with a very strong flashlight Translucent is like op, where light passes through, without being completely transparent

  13. It can also have different shades and even turn black, if it has been kept in the oven furnace a long time

  14. OP 's have no ox, these all have oxblood. Oxblood is almost 100 percent of the time completely Opaque when backlit, no light passes through. Nearly all oxblood is surface also, though there are examples where it dives in and out of the matrix of the marble. Diving ox examples these are Jabo's

  18. Being made of mineral stone, it is considered more of a decorative sphere rather than a real marble.

  26. I'm going to guess it is a dug Ravenswood Opaque Swirl. I say this because of the way the swirls just drop off into the marble and Ravenswood can sometimes have a couple flame tips.

  32. I have a lot of jabos but this is the only one I have like this do you know what run this one is?

  33. Thanks duotone! Maybe, but I think the purple on mine is a lot deeper and I wouldn't describe it a lilac. But I'm not familiar with the Vitro lilacs, so maybe there is more variety in them than the one post shows.

  34. I will always look at marbles over a carpet or a bath towel, I drop them all the time--yes, I am a "clod" when it comes to handling marbles. I drop them all of the time. I just found my little buddy Obi ( a Pug) chewing on one that I lost a few weeks ago--Good boy!--no damage done. Glass to glass does not matter much if it is gentle--as in a jar of them. Marble--On!!

  35. Types like this are very difficult to ID but I think at that size, it's probably a JABO or maybe DAS.

  37. 3 marbles there? Jabo on the last. Possibly Akro cork on first but I need more pix. My first thought was Jabo in the middle, but then it started seeming possibly vintage, so more photos there could help out too.

  38. Third and fourth photo, it could be a Kokomo, but I'm not sure, more views would be needed
