    I think that is an older Vitro hybrid - nice fat vanes.
  2. Ric
    I have had a couple of these in hand (not these particular marbles) and was confident that they were authentic. I think the theory is that they were made when "scrapping the bottom of the frit barrel", so to speak, and that seems plausible to me.

    I think you might be looking at a big Clown, Dave.

    Nice onyx, Dave.
  5. Ric
    That's a nice one - orange is a little less common, I think.
  6. Ric
    Nice marbles, Joe. I really like the ones with that buttery base glass.
  7. Ric
    Sorry for the delay - some more matte ones to consider. It's interesting that I haven't seen similar on other types of Vitros . . .

    Here are a few variations on the theme . . .

    It's an old Vitro.

    That's a borderline rude thing to say, since you are talking to people who are trying to help you. Why would someone not want your marble to be guinea? If you don't want honest responses, I recommend you not ask for ID help.

    I know that both blue and green AV was used and, if I recall properly, some had four colors.
  12. Ric
    Nice one, Dave. I have a couple of similar ones somewhere but they are not easy to find.

    The seams are usually obvious too . . . Guinea photos from @MARBLEMISER

    They are modern marbles made by hand with a torch.
  15. Ric
    Torch marble, perhaps Chinese, IMO.

    Not a PPP. I think Akro or maybe Master.

    5/8 not sure

    Ric replied to Fire1981's topic in Marble I.D.'s

    If there are hints of blue in it I would say Ravenswood. Nice marble.

    5/8 Stumped

    Ric replied to Fire1981's topic in Marble I.D.'s

    If it appears a little more toward salmon colored in hand I would say Ravenswood.

    Another 5/8

    Ric replied to Fire1981's topic in Marble I.D.'s

    I think Cairo.

    4 Heaton?

    Ric replied to Melissa's topic in Marble I.D.'s

    The top ones look the most Heaton to me. Lower left might be Ravenswood and the lower right might be Alley, but I think some of these could go a few directions.

    Alley?

    Ric replied to Melissa's topic in Marble I.D.'s

    They look Alley to me, and I would try 0000 (super fine) steel wool on the rust.
  22. Ric
    This could be related to the intensity (amount) of light being emitted from the different sources and not necessarily the wavelength.
  23. Ric

    3/4 Alley ?

    Ric replied to Fire1981's topic in Marble I.D.'s

    I agree.

    3/4 WVS

    Ric replied to Fire1981's topic in Marble I.D.'s

    Alley is my take on it.

    The OP is already in the Study Hall, Art . . .
