What's the story on those?

present!

Pretty cool. No, haven't seen this color (or a light lavender) core before. Unless tinted base glass which this doesn't appear to be. Surely they made more, where is the rest of the cane? lol

Kinda funny how marbles seem to migrate together. Looks vintage to me based on the similar ones I've come across, and vintage Alley would have been my first guess. As a side note - A family member recently brought me some childhood marbles and I mentioned the 'modern' word. Modern for a lot of people, doesn't mean 40-60 years ago, is how the conversation went, and we joked about getting older. I enjoyed that visit. Good times and some marbles.

LOL, spent so much time squinting at the pic, almost missed this little tidbit of good info at the bottom. Agree with bumblebee, the price point of the 'medium quality' 11/16-7/8" marbles is interesting compared to the rest of the Agates.

I'd go with Peltier Peerless Patch on this one. Sometimes the yellow patch has (what looks like) black metallic but most likely debris/contamination and not aventurine.

The blue one might have a pontil but a really rough one The other two look like modern machine made with a chip or damage (that can sometimes mistaken for a pontil). The black one looks like a Vacor confetti, but hard to tell from the pics

Maybe it's the pictures (or my monitor) but the colors look a lot more vivid than what I'd expect for a Pelt. Maybe a couple more angles under natural lighting would help? Interesting marble either way.

If it's vintage I'd lean more towards Vitro based on the color palette. Hard to ID by construction with a pattern like that.

^Agreed. I like the one on the left. Is the pontil ground or maybe a trick of the light makes it look odd?

^Agreed. Unusual but look vintage. Don't recall a single color orange one before.

^That's where I'd keep them

Came across this listing https://www.kijiji.ca/v-art-collectibles/ottawa/art-deco-borzoi-hound-dog-on-green-marble-swirl-ash-tray-base/1385333534?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true Kind of neat, and got me wondering how many other glass/marble companies (other than Akro) made ashtrays.

If the question is about the construction it looks like a fold assuming the "horseshoes" are on opposite ends. Don't know about MK, but I suppose it could happen to anybody.

cool! Interesting variety of colors, any closer pics?

This thread is starting to become very inspirational

Don't eat them! lol. Only other time I saw a similar one was in the garden too. This year has been plentiful for butterflies in my neck of the woods, it's nice actually.

Isn't that a swallow tail butterfly caterpillar? Similar colors to monarch caterpillars but I think that's what it is.

And a newer one

Some blue, green, red, yellow, (and white) color combo's

The largest Euro sparklers I've come across are just over 1-1/16", so probably close to 1.09"

I want to say bottom right, but I'll go with 2nd from right...no wait. argh

Yeah, c'mon Galen, those aren't Bulgarians, they're called Leightons 😝 In all seriousness, looks like some good marbles. The blue Lat looks like an amazing example. Did they come with a Solitaire board?

Some 7/8" corks (and a 11/16")
