The seedy looking striping glass reminds me of Veiliglass.
-
I don't follow the trends in Cat's eyes very closely, so I would not be too surprised if that is what the kids are calling them today. 🙂
-
I think it's likely, another other possibility would be Vitro.
-
Maybe, but it looks a little foreign to me too so . . .?
-
I think this one in not American made - beyond that, no clue.
-
That would be my call too. I think a few manufacturers made similar ones.
-
I think Akro too - pretty sure I've seen some with AV.
-
It does have some Alley traits, but something seems a little off to me . . . maybe it's just because I can't remember seeing another Alley quite like it. Then again, I doubt I've seen them all . . .
-
Based on this seam: I would guess Master, maybe foreign.
-
I would say this one is Asian. When ever I hear you call one of these a birdcage, I think of these: This is what most collectors would recognize as a "birdcage". They are quite rare. They were made in China. I have seen them in paperweights or aquarium ornaments and, perhaps, marbles.
-
I may be missing something, Tommy, but this one doesn't look Pelty to me. . .?
-
The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...

I've always liked the Champ. Jrs. too- nice score for $14! -
I'm in with double ingot, but the colors look more Akro to me.
-
Help!! Acquired huge collection and need to start selling some.
Ric replied to Alicia's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I'm not entirely convinced that no. 4/4 is a Pelt - might be better, I'd want another view or two. I wouldn't mind seeing more of 6/5 either. -
It's a pretty slag, and it looks to have some of the characteristics - do you see a seam on it anywhere?
-
I would love to see a good collection of early Vacors!
-
That's a pretty one too - it looks a lot like a Vitro Conqueror.
-
I think it is a Sparkler but I don't think it's handmade - pretty marble.
-
They look like melted pontil transitionals but they look newer to me. I think some of these types were made in Bulgaria more recently, but I am not entirely sure.
-
Slags are usually just colored transparent glass and opaque white. This one looks to have a lot of white, but it's often hard to tell without the marble in hand. If you look with a light, what would you say the ratio is - more white than transparent or more transparent than white?
-
That's a neat marble - Navarre comes to mind, but I don't think the pontil looks quite right for a transitional either - maybe it's a melted pontil trans, maybe?
-
I agree, is there a lot of transparency?
-
I agree, there's just not much structure to go on for an ID.
-
Crazy Alley - nice!
-
That's a great photo - the marbles have been harder for me to find than I thought they might be.
