More patches . . . a few Acme Realers.
-
Your pics look okay to me. The green on black is nice. Is the base opaque, or more like a Bruiser?
-
Nice box, Rick - original marbles too, no doubt! I especially like the brown on white ones around 2 o'clock. I see a little horsehair in there too.
-
Most say Heaton Agate on the long box edge. Is yours not labelled?
-
Sorry, I certainly didn't mean to upset you. I honestly have no idea what "super rare" means and was hoping you might clarify it for me.
-
I believe you meant "Tiger Eyes". Cat's Eyes have colored vanes in transparent base glass. I think many folks would call the big one a Type IV TE, and maybe the smaller blue/yellow one next to it. Otherwise it's tough for me to tell from the single view.

or Champion?

What does "super rare" mean?
-
I have seen the fish but I do not own one. They are neat too. The coolest old Chinese sulfide I have ever seen was a sitting "Happy Buddha" (with many children and birds crawling all over him) in about a 3" sphere. I saw it about 25 years ago and it is the only one I have ever seen - I once saw an image of it on the web but I did not save it and I've never seen it again, even though I have searched for years. I have vowed to buy one if I ever see one for sale. But I am beginning to doubt if I'll ever have the opportunity to own one. 🙁

Alley Agates, as far as I can tell.
-
They did a lot of browns and they used that milky grayish base too. Heaton would be my second choice though - based mostly on the pattern, which is a little different, but certainly not out of the question, for Alley.
-
Heaton is what I am thinking.
-
My first thought is Alley.
-
Alley X2

I am pretty sure that's an Alley. And yes, a good yellow is rarely seen on Ravenswoods. -
The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...

Very nice! What color is the base? -
I don't think there is much debate about these being Peltier, but maybe I'm wrong. It's whether or not the base is clear that I thought could be up for debate.
-
Welcome to the Marble Connection. Nice display - looks like your going to need another soon!
-
Glass is too nice for a Master Cat's Eye, IMO, and I've seen amber Peltiers but not pink. Vitro did some pink-based ones at Anacortes so . . . maybe?
-
That's a very pretty Vitro, IMO.
-
My best Onionskin . . . 1 15/16" . . . okay, so it's my only Onionskin. Turns out I'm starting to fancy hand-mades. Heaven help me . . .
-
Nice Tommy! No question about that one.
-
I suppose you could debate if these are clear or not . . .
