Can hand made marbles be hot glued without damaging them?
Steph replied to water_woman's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Hi. Welcome. I think it would be a nice idea. I don't think hot glue would damage this particular version of ceramic marbles. And they're not particularly valuable so you don't need to worry about that. Capturing the sentiment and charm in shadow boxes would be lovely. -
Classic patch and ribbons for sure! My favorite from childhood.

Another sign of your great imagination

One larger introductory group could give us an idea of the general age, condition and rarity of the group. Then could move to small group shots and multiple angles for specific IDs.

That's a happy thought.

There's a picture I see online from time to time -- a moldy orange with green mold on top, white mold around the middle and orange still on the bottom. Every time I see it I think "Vitro".

Cool! Can't wait to see what you turn that into. -
Totally see a rabbit knuckling down! I still have marble hallucinations too even after backing away from them for awhile.

Mostly modern and common. They couple which might not be aren't standing out to me as very valuable. I am not able to make out what kind of marble is in the top left of this image. The red and white halfway down is also different and I can't tell if it would be older or newer. However, even if older, it's not standing out as something to sell individually. Where are you hopoing to sell them?

So very interesting. It's amazing how much history a small toy can have, and how the history of a toy can be intertwined with the history of a country's economy and its people. I've thought this often about America. I see it is so in Japan also.
