Yowza! I think it's a wild and wonderful double ingot Pelt.
With the tail being a beautiful addition to all the accidents which happened on the way to getting those two marbles stuck together.
Remembered some lovely brown stones my father had -- polished petrified wood. Tried to find a picture of petrified wood spheres but they weren't coming up as lovely as my memory.
So here's a Tiger Eye which came up on my search.
I can't figure out what they're thinking. Did you do a conversion on the shipping price for the package you received? Did they make _anything_ on the sale of the six after shipping and ebay fees?
Yes, Winnie, it IS interesting that they'd make very plain marbles also if that's part of a modern enterprise.
I STILL want to know what Eastern European children did for marbles when the Iron Curtain was clamped down.
Hi ... welcome. What does the label say? Micro-something?
Mixture of styles there and possibly a wide range of ages. It's helpful to put the marbles in rows. (Not too many in one group. 10 is _okay_ but is on the high side of what it's comfortable to discuss in one thread.)
Welcome Mr. CoolestStuff. Thanks for posting. The red and white on white are unusual.
Bud, I can't remember that one being translucent. I tried to find it but it's not where I hoped it would be. ... my unpacking has stalled .....
!!!
Congrats.
I'm jealous!
I did go out to an antique store once this year ... just to get my feet wet ... no luck ... this is inspiring.
Ooh, those mossy marbles with half-and-half patches are interesting.
