AFAIK, Peltier Dragons, flaming or not, are on a green base, so I don't think this marble is a Dragon of any sort. I do agree it's a nice marble though. 🙂

I definitely thought about JABO for this one too and it certainly could be - it would just be one that I don't recognize, but I surely haven't seen them all.

I understand and appreciate your interest, Aiko. 🙂

I'm not exactly sure what you're looking for . . . they do look like Masters, and they are interesting - but nothing too out of the ordinary, IMO.

What you are seeing is just some striation and variation in the base glass. It is totally common. It's just more noticeable on some marbles than others. Making machine made marbles is not a precision process - not even close. The way the glasses mix in the tank, the crucibles or the stream can vary from minute to minute. What is remarkable is that there is any consistency at all. In your marbles, there is lots of variation in the glass. The base glass on some is nearly clear, others are translucent, some have lots of white filaments, some don't. The amount of striping glass varies from marble to marble too. Variation in marbles is the rule not an exception. But they all still look like Peltier Rainbos, right?

I agree - I think of it as dense. The level of bleeding in your second photo is pretty unusual for CAC, I think.

That is a Vitro Conqueror. Backlight it and you should be able to see that it is veneered colors (white included) on a transparent base.

It's a pretty one - but I'm really on the Vitro/Akro line with this one, leaning slightly toward Akro.

Whatcha looking for buddy?

Pretty bright color for a Japanese game marble too - their colors are usually kind of drab.

I've seen some 9-vane Asian ones too.

Pretty marble but a tough one . . . I'm leaning slightly Ravenswood over Alley.

Looks mostly Champion to me.

It's a little different but I think Alley is a good possibility.

Probably Alley, IMO.

That's a good black, I'm leaning Alley.

I'm thinking Alley.

Alox is my first thought but it could be one of a few different company's, IMO.

Probably Alley.

Alley, IMO.

Fire has it.

I think CAC is a good possibility.

Hmmm . . . MFC maybe?

I think Alley is a good call for this one too.

Yeah, what Cheese said.
