I`m so happy for you William!

Beauties!
-
Me too.

The micas and the gooseberry got my attention . . . fantastic.
-
Unbelievable. A lifetime find for sure!
-
You could do that! You should do that! A marble show is a great experience. Especially if you stay at the hotel a couple of nights for the in-room trading, and hanging around with other marble collectors.

Contemporary air-trap marble. Fair number of contemporary artists make them.

Puff is always there.

Oh, there`s hope! Studying marbles seems to be a lifelong thing. Been at it for years now and still have huge gaps I`ll never fill. So I just concentrate on areas I really, really like - old Germans, slags, transitionals, Pelts, Alleys, some Akro, cat`s-eyes. And buying the stray pretty one regardless of who made it. Buckle up!

Maybe a tap, not a slap - looks more brown than red on my monitor. But that may be just me.

There are some HTF marbles from Czechoslovakia that are similar to the OP, but I`ve never had one in hand. So I`ll just throw those into the mix as a remote possibility, too.

Yep, not Veiligglas. -
No. Not every swirl has a name. Most don`t.

Very light white is usually Akro.

Agree with Al.

Alley Agate w/ Aventurine - Stellar!
ann replied to rockgardenplants's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
In my experience, most old Alleys (but maybe not every single one) that have aventurine are with blue, green, or both.The orange sent up a red flag for me. Of course, Ron probably has one! -
Not CAC. Too much blending of colors.
-
Looks more-or-less like a nicer Imperial -
-
Vitro helmets generally have a transparent "face" and a stripe down the middle of the helmet, often red, but can be other colors too.
-
The first three stone ones are probably flint. The last one is a German Bennington.
-
Even I thought Master tiger eye, and my mind usually remains blank when I see something that might be a Master`s . . . .
-
No. They`re German Chinas. A good mix from the later period of Chinas. Lined Chinas, crosshatch, and bull`s eye.

I`ll feel like a fool if this is wrong. But if I`m right, somebody will have to take my blurry . . . Bifurcated.
