Could be...looks pretty close

Sunny side up please

I thought this was a Vitro for a while as well, no worries. Whatcha think?

I'd think German and they probably made quite a few over the years. Orange peel surface on some of them m

Looks like a lot of fun!

Those accountants with their weird 7's. Cool documents!

Very informative, interesting stuff

The second pic looks fine as it sits. If you want a better finish on the other pieces, rinse off the coarser grits and use a slurry of finer grit.

"Shipwreck" German handmades make more sense they'd be imported via ship. Can't say the same for machine made marbles, but I'm sure there were plenty left behind at the beach or slingshot for the gulls (oh no) There was a lot more indigo blue glass at the beach when I was younger, but as a sign of the times it's more green or clear that I see nowadays. Still have a lot since I keep most pieces.

Some handmades, by craftsmen in Germany |||||||||||

Great looking Riv Mike is that a pick up?

heavy metal?

Marbles look great. Last group = good eye! wow

No more discussions on this style of marble?? Killer marble, diverse experience (ie: multi-continent), lots of people that have been collecting a long long time... if I weren't so interested in the subject matter I wouldn't be poking this thread with a cattle prod in an attempt to learn more. lol. I saw the other "confetti cloud" thread and got my hopes up. yeah well here's a prod. (Sorry Mike)

Pretty cool, can't say I've seen one quite like that before.

Some of the most bad-ass looking pelts in that pic for sure

Them's the ones, thanks Clyde

I've seen a couple pictures before but they're a bit of an enigma. Wasn't there a some posted in a Pelt group pic a few months back?

Slag collection looks like it's coming along nicely. The OP marble probably wouldn't fit in the the "slag" category. I think I see what you're seeing as far as a Pelt pattern or even a double ingot Akro, but my guess from the pics (and size) would be one of those Roosters (Vacor?)

Nice marble Terry! I see what you mean about the colors and agree that it's a 'confetti-style' construction. There's something about the original post that looks a bit 'off' from that, and I'm just not quite convinced it's anything but a style made in Germany, from a cane, with two pontils...

Any other handmade collectors that can shed some light? It's a very interesting marble China or not.

Very cool, almost hypnotizing.

Cool feet. Were those from a table or chair or?

Nice, I particularly like the swirls. Cool way to display as well!!

A watch fob maybe? I don't know if I've seen a pendant like that before on a necklace
