What Do You Know About Larger Wv Swirls?
Ric replied to Steph's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
In my mind, WV Swirls are vintage marbles, which were intentionally made as swirls at a WV company. I would not consider JABOs to be WV swirls any more than I would consider CAC or the occasional Akro or MK swirls to be WV swirls. But that's just me . . . -
You have to like Masters. The last one is sweet.

Plants are crazy, the diversity of organic compounds they produce is amazing. How about the burning sun - setting over Lake Michigan last night.

Apple pie without the cheese is like a kiss without the squeeze - at least that's what I've heard.

Apple, real - McIntosh, fresh off the tree.

With that color and pattern, I would have it with my Alleys - batch mix era.

Nice snag, big ones are always good when you can find them. The biggest I've seen is about 1 1/8" too. A lesson on relativity, perhaps?

Another and someothers.

Flower time-lapses are awesome. A whole field would be cool. No fields of flowers around here. But I do love walking about this time of year. it's nice to look out over mowed hay, and drying bean and corn fields.

Not a chalky, interesting marble though - I like the green glass.
-
I would guess another Cairo - nice white.
-
I see why you keep it, I like it too - a Cairo, I would guess.
-
That's where I am at this point too.

It's a nice marble, if the base glass under the white is mostly clear, I would lean Vitro - seams look it too. But the glass is pretty bubbly and I do see what could be sloppy flip-flopped ribbons so Pelt might be a possibility - haven't seen a Kokomo like it.
-
I like 'em best wih lots of clear.

Does the name "Ringer" refer more to the game and the box the marbles were packaged in, rather than the marbles themselves? Did all Ringer boxes have the same type of marbles?
-
Just an odd, perhaps more interesting, one.

And when I see colors other than white (and the brick red) in a brick I immediately think not Akro.
