  1. That is a url showing a Vitro Conqueror which was misidentified as a Wedding Cake.
  2. This picture appears to show a clear base. Seems quite revealing. I think the white is layered over the clear. I does look like Vitro, but not a solid base. Okay, well, that's all for me. I gotta call it quits for the night.
  3. Those pictures are helpful. They're showing why I hesitated to agree with Wedding Cake. The Wedding Cake is supposed to have the "off white base". Your marble looks as if it has a clear base glass.
  4. I don't think he's claiming that Champion Puce Swirls is a marble name. Puce is just being used as a descriptive word, I'm guessing. (Am I right?) Of course, it's not a color name that I'm conversant with. I had to google for it. I would just say purple for what I'm seeing on the screen. If we can get past the name of the color, does anyone recognize the maker of the marble?
  5. Not sure any are slags. I'm getting a "swirl" feeling on the left and the right. The middle ... I'm wondering if that's a Peltier Rainbo.
  6. Me either. On the first I could see it possibly turning out to be Akro. The second looks like Marble King or Vitro.
  7. It is the consensus that Alley didn't make patches. The patches found at the Alley site which excited so many of us are probably Akro. So that leaves Akro versus Master. When I was looking at your marbles I tried to see the seams. Not all the seams were front and center, but since I already gave you a bit of a hard time on your Wedding Cake question, I tried to get a good feeling for your mossy patches without asking for more pictures. And the feeling I got was that the seams fit the typical Akro pattern more than the typical Master pattern.
  8. From what I can see, I think Akro on all.

    MK ?

    For sure patch and ribbon pattern. I'll go with MK on that basis.
  10. Not saying it isn't. Something about the clear-looking area over the sliver of color held me back, but mostly I don't like to give an ID based on just one side of a potentially uncommon marble. More people will be by to give opinions.
  11. I don't know what it is, but I can bump it for you.
  12. Two thumbs up. Makes total sense for the vane shape and colors.
  13. Do you mean Wedding Cake? My first thought is that it is not a Wedding Cake. Not familiar with Birthday Cake. A couple more views could help with the ID. Plus the size.
  14. Hi. Welcome. What size? I'll go with Alley Agate as the maker for now.
  15. I agree that it looks Vacor though I don't know the style name. Sometimes in the Vacor Galaxies you could see things like cats eyes under the splattered surface, deep within the dark glass. Was a mystery why they had stuff inside such a dark marble which was covered in splatter.
  16. I don't know. Vitro or Marble King. This pic shows why my thoughts immediately went to MK. Your vane structure isn't yelling vintage MK at me, but that's where I have my marbles with similar colors. And your vane shape is not yelling classic Vitro at me either. So ?
  17. Yes, that's the vintage version. You can tell because of the blue being across from the green.
  18. ??? The ones that looked like All-Reds but don't have red are Tiger Eyes. Not sure if all the big ones had names. Aren't some from generic "shooter" packaging? (But I am out of the loop on the names collectors have come up with.)
  19. Steph

    Vacor ???

    Closest style name I'm coming up with is Dragonfly. Maybe an unswirled one?
  20. I'm with Pelt Rainbo. And noting that big ones can get weird.
