None of these pics are mine, but kinda shows my thought process as possibly being Vitro Versus: Versus:

Impressive, love how the sun shines thru

Could be Vitro? I seem to recall a similar color combo on fancy conquerers...but the pattern on this is all over the place. and I don't know enough about them to be much more help

Found some older pics, good memories

Heartfelt.

Those are pretty cool, and it's nice to have examples to compare "unknown" ones to, like Ron mentioned it's a good learning tool.

nice marbles! I've seen onionskins open up like that near end of cane so I'm not yet convinced it's buffed/polished. If original that's a very nice marble with the mica and all. I think the term "end of day" is more of a myth when applied to marbles, although a fitting term for other types of glass manufacturing where you used up what you had left and made whimsy items (like turtles for example).

Alley was my first thought for both, although I don't know enough about these types of swirls. And bummer on the Panther but there does look like a blue/white Pelt below it which might be worth a new post for comment

Hard to say, is there a size? Looks to be two distinct cutlines...I probably would have waffled on CAC but Euro is another possibilty

Yes?

See if this works

I for one, like to see some members posting again. Been a lot to learn over the years, and in my early days on the Forum, it's worth a thank-you for the knowledge that's been shared and gained during that time.

Awesome. Good on ya. I show some to my kids, nieces and nephews and explain briefly (attention span considered) and they go on their way. It's great when they come up with a creative game.

That would be a huge marble

Might be worthy of a new thread, looks like a nice one 😃

Looks kinds Pelty to me

No need to apologize. My photo's are less than stellar . I meant more the lighting, and how the green appeared in a couple of those pics. 9" circumference then? That's a huge marble. Diameter would help narrow it down but I still wouldn't rule out MFC

What is the actual size? OP says 9"? To me it looks like MFC. Pictures are wonky, probably showing a green tinge etc that aren't really there.

Wow, those are really nice. Great symmetry, tri-level, yellow solid core...2"...nice shape...wow! did they have any others?

That was a very well done video, thanks for the link

No, the picture I was thinking of was from 10-15 years ago and some guy was describing his marbles as wet mint and (if memory serves) the oil bottle was in the background and dripping off his fingers

Interesting. Which war? I could see it being WW1, but WW2 would seem a bit late in the handmade time period (of course contemporaries are still made today, and some countries weren't as automated with marble making machines back then).

I've got a couple kicking around, but smaller size. Never seen a legit one bigger than 3/4". I'm not convinced the ones from Argentina are German made. Pretty sure a lot of the Belgian ones are a bit "off" as well. Good luck with your search!

Forgot to ask, did you request a refund?
