Unusual base glass on this German. (took the picture last week and didnt get around to posting until today)
-
Always hard to compare an in-hand opinion to pics on a screen, but for my 2 cents it looks legit to me. But like I said, somebody might know otherwise based on their personal experience with the marble. Good luck at the show.
-
lol, the handmades certainly set the bar high! Looks like a couple decent hand gathered slags in the mix.
-
Could be Pelt with an abundance of coverage.
-
What does it look like without the uv? Some people actually collect uv glass items dishes etc
-
That's pretty cool. I agree not Pelt. I'd almost want a closer look in hand. Could be a folded up vitro conquerer or it could be something else
-
Definitely hand made German, but there are some intricacies with types that don't fall into a definite category. I never quite understood "transparent Indian" compared to a banded transparent vs. Coreless swirl. Might be a regional thing?
-
How about this one, any other views?
-
Not sure if that's an Alley? Might need some more views. Blue almost looks transparent. The one to its left (with yellow) in the first pic also looks worth another view
-
Foreign wirepull, most likely velligglas (sp). what makes this look more appealing is the "wire" follows more of a spiral pattern compared to the more common random pattern. A hardcore collector might see the value in the pattern compared to your average wirepull.
-
Better lighting on the first might help. Looks like it could be?
-
Good question, I'm curious as well. Aventurine in German handmades is few and far between. Most likely incidental. Your example above is excellent. What's the size?
-
Yes, both German. You may have better results if you take the underwater pics looking down (rather than sideways thru the glass, which adds its own distortion).
-
Cool, can you share any history on the item? Where you got it etc.?
-
Most likely. Foreign to the US
-
Is it an old rubber superball?
-
Have you considered Velliglass (sp) for the last one? The lumpy pigment in the green makes me wonder.
-
Some nice combos there
-
Here's a desktop I did with the marbles under glass
-
Post pics if you do epoxy... it was something I'd considered for some of my more common marbles but it was too "permanent" for me. Some of the old timers might remember pics of those concrete flower pots somebody made decades ago...
-
Yes. All 3 Pelt rainbos
-
Yay for T-Thursday! Biggest is 1"
-
Agreed on non-USA and almost looks like a double ingot.

Hand painted clay marbles by Kelley
I'llhavethat1 replied to Penny Kelley's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Not what I was expecting when I read the thread title, but super cool. I like the idea of clay encased in glass and need to find one now. Props to you and thanks for sharing your story -
Looks like a nice group of quality eye candy
